The Smith Model 61 Escort was a dog, very ammo sensitive. Can’t imagine this helped the reliability.

The .22 RF is a problematic round for semi-automatic handguns. I have a Sig Mosquito. It only “likes” CCI MiniMags. A long, skinny case makes a lousy platform for extraction, and the low energy makes FTE’s happen all the time.
