Check that the new drum is sitting perfectly flat on the hub, I had this issue with my new drums several years ago (part of the kit for hydraulic brake conversion), the front drums needed to have its inner radius filed where it contacts the hub (rears were fine as they had new hubs and were machined to match) and once done, fitted flat onto the hub flange.
I did not notice this at first, it wasn't until I could see that the wheel rotation was out of truth (difficulty in setting up the tracking) that I had to investigate and spotted this problem. The profile of the angle on the drum differed to that on the angle of the hub - this has a curve - the drum is square - and once they matched it was fine, it is hard to see at first, only has to be slightly out, if the drum rocks slightly before the screws are fitted, then that is your problem.
Good luck!
