Yeah, don't worry about jams until you run several bricks (at least 1,500 rounds) through the gun. Keep it clean and lubed but the Ruger should be a very forging gun for ammo by design. Just get some federal bulk and plink away for cheap thrills to break it in.
The loaded indicator was never an issue for my MKIII. Loved the gun but sold it to fund the fun fund; was getting into reloading if I recall.
F-ff-f?
