Question CA Hicap Magazine Misfeed

When I purchased my CA M15A4 Carbine it came stock with a CA hicap 300 round magazine. This magazine seems to misfeed BBs when I use it (i.e. the BBs don't seem to be entering the AEG). I tried my CA M15A4 with a CA lowcap magazine and that works well, it's just the hicap mag that I an having problems with.

I did lube the hicap mag's BB channel with a bit of silicone oil and I made sure that once I loaded BBs into the hicap mag that I used the mag's bottom wheel to make sure the BBs stacked up to the top of the feed channel. I'm not sure what else I should/can try so I thought I would seek opinions here please.

I also notice that BBs sit on top of a spring in the lowcap mags. I don't see the same thing in the hicap mag unless the spring is buried inside the mag. I guess my point here is what pushes the BBs up the channel and into the AEG in a hicap mag?

If you have any suggestions or experience with this problem please post. Many thanks all.
