If you have a V3-style hotend you very likely rotated the motor mount removing and installing the hotend. This is why you get plastic bunching up on one side while it goes sparse on the other side. Look at it dead-on and ensure it's perfectly 90 degrees from the bed. It's especially telling if you had to redo your Z calibration after changing nozzles...

Good point, thanks will definitely check that one out.

Bed wasn't off by much, maybe a couple of thousands of an inch

Remember that 0.004 inch = 0.10 mm.

That's half of a 0.20 mm layer and all of a 0.10 mm layer, which will make a huge difference in how well the first few layers work.

Thanks Ed. When I wrote that I had already leveled it and was re-printing. It came out much better, still need to check to make sure the extruder is not tilted.

Thanks for all the advise everybody. The nozzle was slightly stilted as well. The biggest part of the problem I think was me not being used to the .5 nozzle. I wasn't expecting so many things to change when I swapped it.
