There are lots of ways to prepare restraints, and one cannot tell from
your question which method you used. Generally, using pseudoatoms
increases the bounds (to account for the ambiguity involved). You may
need to study the source code of makeDIST_RST.c (if you used that
program) to see exactly what is going on.
