The problem is this - when I cycle the toggle to load a snap cap round in the chamber it locks in the back position. I have to push back a little farther to take pressure off then release the magazine clip. The snap cap remains in the magazine.

This makes no sense.
Are you loading the snap cap via the magazine or directly into the chamber?
The magazine can only raise the hold open so far, it is limited by the arm of the hold open connecting with the bottom of the receiver; this is only the case when the pistol is assembled of course.
