because your structure is wrong: it has two very close Fe atoms (at 0.33 
A). The bcc structure has either a bcc lattice (ibrav=3) and one atom in 
the unit cell (primitive cell), or a simple cubic lattice (ibrav=1) and 
two atoms in the unit cell, one at 000 and one at 1/2,1/2,1/2 in lattice 
parameter units (conventional cell)
