That used to be true, but not anymore. Modern .22s, certainly including the Ruger automatics, have firing pins that are designed for dry-fire. They have a built-in stop that keeps them from hitting the chamber mouth.
Yep - that's true - but only if you've been careful when stripping it down and reassembling it and checked to be sure that pin didn't drop out of the bolt during the cleaning -

This one still has the pin -



This one doesn't -
