on 9/23 we migrated our entire site to HTTPS. Almost 3 months later and Google has recently cached versions of URLs in the index.

We have an sitemap that is live with 100% 301 redirects to
We have an sitemap that is live as well with >95% end-state URLs.

Curious on how Google is caching multiple URLs as recently as 12/6.

I started this dive into the index after seeing that our indexation rate had stalled at about 50%. Has anyone dealt with Google being oblivious to a 301 response code? What were the steps taken to remedy?

Review the whole codebase on existing of internally linked http urls. This is the most cause of remaining them indexed despite of redirect to https.

If http remains internally linked, Google means like "these redirects could be created erroneously - they are done with one code line in htaccess or similar, but if http remains internally linked, maybe they are truly correct and should remain indexed".

Beside of this, check whether your https certificate is correctly implemented (Chrome should fire errors if not)
