Problem with my 1971 Model 94

I have a 1971 Winchester Model 94 in .44 Magnum that I am have a problem with. Occasionally when I work the action to eject a fired cartridge and load another the next cartridge in the magazine will pop out underneath the lifter so that I have a cartridge on the lifter ready to be chambered and a cartridge under the lifter so that I cannot close the action.

Obviously there is something worn or out of adjustment that needs attention. Any ideas what might cause this and is it a job best left to a professional gunsmith?

Thank you and greetings from the piney woods of east Texas.
