You fieldstrip the gun, insert a loaded magazine in the frame and try to compare them, to see if they really present the top round any higher. If they do, check for any likely interference with the ejector.
Just eyeballing the magazines out of the gun won't cut it, because that wouldn't take into account any differences in the height/position the mag catch notch.
But as Hawk says, steel cased ammo isn't a good baseline. Check the ammo for inconsistencies in the case rims, and while you're at it, the shape of your extractor.
Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold.
