If you want to continue shooting "reduced recoil" rounds, you might consider dropping in a lighter recoil spring. That will probably solve your problem with that ammo. Of course if you start to shoot +p rounds in there, you'll be beating up your gun all to heck.

Stovepiping from my experience is usually due to your slide not coming back with enough energy to eject the round fast enough before it starts closing again. Your gun then turns into a brass trap! This is due to weak ammo, or a tight gun, or too stiff a recoil spring and/or main spring, or some combination of the 3 factors.
