So I figured out a feew things. The first is that the speed loaders I have are complete trash, and also part of the problem. They were loading the bbs weird, causing them to double up and jam inside, which is why only a few would come out at low speeds until it was unjammed and the bbs behind the jam could flow freely. The second thing is that the mags are "150" mags, but actually hold 100-120. They are working fine now that I know these things and am using a different speed loader. Although I still don't know if they will feed right in the gun because it is being painted right now and I don't have it with me to test. Hopefully they are all good and will work fine in the gun without having to modify them. Once I get my gun back ill let you all know the outcome of what had to be done to the mags in the end.

I always try to load under the "max" amount of bbs. That will allow your bbs to sit in the mag in the proper alignment. Maxing the bbs will cause misalignment, like you found out, and cause crappy feeding. Also, another thing to note is to not leave mid caps loaded for several days. The reasoning is you will weaken the feeding spring and shorten the life of your mags.
