I just bought the wife a Ruger 10/22 for Christmas/birthday. I took it to the range yesterday; it does not have a bolt hold open when the magazine is empty. We were shooting it, and we kept dry firing it when the magazine was finished. Is this okay, or am I going to have to count bullets? Please tell me we're not going to have to count, as that is not going to make it not worthwhile. We had a bolt action 22 I traded in for this one. We got a semi-auto so she could shoot "fuss free", and if we have to count each shot, that is going to add to the fuss, and thus we might as well have kept the bolt action.
