    Good morning

    I was sorting through my ammo, and I care across these two boxes:

    - Winchester Wildcat 22 - “high velocity rimfire cartridges” and “high velocity 22 long rifle” on the box
    - Aguila .22 Extra - “.22 Super Extra” and “long rifle standard velocity solid point” on the box

    See the attached photo.

    Are these standard 22lr rounds? They are throwing me off by not clearly saying 22LR on the box. Hoping to confirm.

    The "LR" in 22lr stands for Long Rifle.
    Your Aguila is standard velocity and the Winchester is high velocity...both 22lr

    Be aware standard velocity 22LR will not operate some of the more finicky semi-automatics. No worries with bolt action and revolvers. Standard velocity is a little quieter than high velocity if you care about that sort of thing.
