Can i used .22 shorts in my voere .22 long single shot rifle?

The question seems to be, can you use .22 shorts in a rifle chambered for a .22 long. The answer is yes. The .22 short, long, and long rifle rounds use the same diameter bullets. The short and long use same weight bullet. The only difference is the long holds a bit more powder theoretically yielding a slightly higher muzzle velocity. Since the short is not as long as the .22 long, it will chamber and fire fine in a rifle chambered for the .22 long. You’ll have problems if you try using a .22 LR in a gun chambered for the .22 long, but that wasn’t what you asked.
