@ Neil, Limp wristing is when you fire an automatic pistol and as the slide is coming back towards you you let the recoil kick the gun up. your wrist and hold on the firearm provides a stable enough base to let the kinetic energy of the slide eject the cartridge and slam the next one in place. When you let the recoil overpower your hold it robs the slide of some of its energy and often it doesn't have the power to eject the cartridge fully creating a "stove pipe"

A Stove pipe is when the bullet casing is not ejected fully from the firing chamber and hangs with the open end out of your pistol pinched in the slide.

It really sounds like your ammo to me.
