I've put about 15,000 rounds of 200 gr. lead semi wadcutters through my 5 1911's I use 4.0 grains of titegroup or 4.5 gr of 231 with a 16.5lb spring, 24lb in my compact. they always cycle and eject fine.
So I would recommend that you get a dial caliper and measure the casemouth crimp diameter, glocks have a loose chamber so this should not be a problem, but if your crimp is more than say .472 it could be causing a problem when extracting, not likely but possible.
Could also be that your extractors are gooked up with crud, brush them good and see if the problem continues.
It could not be a light load combined with limpwristing could it?
5.4 of 231 is not a real light load though. so I would check it with a scale and get a good powder measure.
