I have new to this forum and this is my first post. I have an older springfield 1911 A1. Army Issue from wwII era. I have found that it is very tempermental with ammo type. I have found that jacketed round nose bullets work best for store bought. I have also found that wad cutters or hollow points OFTEN misfeed. I am not sure if you reload ammo or not, but I can get stubborn bullets to feed easier, the deeper I seat them in the casing. Also, magazine springs could have a lot to do with it. You may want to try a 10 rd magazine with 8 rounds and see how it works. Also, dont leave your magazines loaded for long periods of time. It has also been my experience that you get what you pay for on magazines. Go ahead and buy a top dollar one and see how it shoots. Let me know if this helps
