The V block method is the best, but you need a surface table and a set of v blocks with the correct angle for the number of grooves. Seven grooves is common, but so is five. that's at least two sets of blocks,

So as a general rule of thumb if the bullet is too small would this cause tumbling?
I've had a few rimfire tumblers and due to the inconsistencies in the manufacture of the bullets this would tie in to me.

It could, but other factors could cause tumbling. Too slow a twist or too low a velocity for the length of the bullet: these are the usual culprits.
