Not knowing the history of the gun, and / or specifically how you went about these remedy attempts ... and you say the High Velocity worked with no issues .... seems you have a recoil spring problem.

Have you actually field stripped it, all the way ?

You have the correct / matching slide / barrel components ... hinting that it may have been taken apart and re-assembled or had a barrel switch prior to you owning it ?

Check inner for spring interference marks the surrounding components or a mishapen / worn recoil spring.

You are then aware that the 41 / 46 were engineered to work with standard velocity rounds.

Also, check your ammo. Sometime the lead projectiles over the year accumulate a lead oxide that make the rounds difficult to use in even a revolver depending on the degree of degradation of the lead. (FYI in the 41 clone air guns old lead pellets cause a slew of similar problems )
