Just to be sure I always check 'disable cache' in the developer tools settings(icons bottom right when developer tools is open). That forces to reload the cache all the time when your console is open. When it is closed it uses the cache again.

I find cmd+shift+r not reliable.

User reports in Chrome 17 the bug is resolved bug report here in Linux, and the other post of the same request reports that cmd+shift+r forces a reload. I wasn't however able to find a 'from chrome support' response, or a definitive supported example of this in action.

Hope this helps
