I think that it is a combination of inadequate springs, followers sticking on the side of the casing and the prongs holding down the cartridge being too low relative to the magazine lip. I am glad to get the seven rounders and thank you.
You might have to do a little schmoozing on the mags that are sticking. Could just be stamping burrs inside that the follower(s) are catching. Try pushing the follower(s) all the way down a few times with a small screw driver. I had a couple of mags for my Model 20 do the same thing but finally got them to work after playing around with them and got them broken in. Unfortunately, you can't disassemble those mags without ruining them.
