Fron Wheel bearings??

Had to replace the front brake drums and did the grinder and punch thing to seperate the hub from the old drums. I took a punch and knocked out the old back bearings and grease seals. My question when I put the new bearing in and tapped in place and installed the grease seal there is just a slight amount of play between the the bearing and grease seal. You can actual wiggle the bearing between the race and the grease seal. When I mount the hub to the front axel on the hub and just slightly tighten the nut that holds it on there is no play or slop. Does all this sound right or should the bearing be pressed in. The 1963 C10 shopmanual kind of indicates it just lays in and the install the grease seal. Hope this make sense and thanks for any help....
