From the first link,
Quote:
The variety of .22 LR loads are often divided into four distinct categories, based on nominal velocity:

Subsonic, which also includes "target" or "match" loads, at nominal speeds below 1,100 ft/s (340 m/s)
Standard-velocity: 1,000–1,135 ft/s (305–346 m/s), common velocities are around 1,125 ft/s (343 m/s)
High-velocity: 1,200–1,310 ft/s (370–400 m/s) per second
Hyper-velocity, or ultra-velocity: over 1,400 ft/s (430 m/s)
The following sorts out the basics for each round.


.22 lr https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_Long_Rifle

.22 long https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_Long

.22 extra long https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_Extra_Long

.22 short https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_short

.22 rimfire is a big category, there are cartridges of all sort. Some are entirely proprietary. They're all rather interesting!
