Strange Issues

[Preacher]

I have noticed something that I can't explain and am hoping that someone on here can help. Whenever I make my .357 Henry safe, I empty the loading tube and work the action so that the loaded round can pop out. Whenever I do this with my .22 rimfire I have to work the lever twice to eject 1 round each time I have to work the action. Is this normal (this is my first rimfire).

Mine does that also. I've also noticed that if I load a round through the ejection port I have to cycle the lever twice to fire that round. Didn't think anything of this because I saw a video in which the presenter had to do both.

I have the same issue with my Golden Boy 22lr. I’ve only experienced it once because my usual method for emptying the rifle is firing all the rounds.
