I'm currently using a Ruger, I'll let you know if it does the same.
From 2010 to mid-2011 I had 4 OOBs in my Remington 597 I used for Ruger Rimfire. From mid-2011 to mid-2014 I used 15-22s and had no issues although I saw several OOBs others had in 2010 events. From mid-2014 to present I have used a custom 10/22 with zero issues except for occasional dud rounds that the 10/22 extractors sometimes can't get out of the chamber. So using good ammo is key. I use nothing but CCI-AR Tactical in my rifles from when it came out around 2011. 40g Mini-Mags in my pistols. Sometimes lesser ammo in a match that is not really important.
