re:
The technical term for a live round stovepipe is Bolt Over Base Misfeed. The most common cause is a weak magazine spring, with short recoil coming a close second. Weak ammunition can do it, but it would have to be pretty wimpy.
Grossly overspringing the slide can also lead to a BOB failure.
A severe BOB misfeed is often referred to as a "Rideover" feed. This one usually jams the gun up solidly, often locking the magazine up in the well.
