Even in cases when I feel I'm taking it back on the inside, my coach has confirmed that I am indeed taking it away on the outside (perhaps so slightly that it's hard to notice).

iverson has also pointed out some good points here. I think I've been focusing too much on the target line and neglecting the swing plane (45deg angle)
if you cup the right wrist it is hard to take it outside and if it does not roll open, it is hard to take it inside, just cup it then cock it
