Best Answer

In most cases, a .22 short cartridge can be fired from a firearm with a .22 LR chamber. However, with repeating firearms, such as lever, pump or semi auto, the short cartridge may not feed through the action- it will require loading one cartridge at a time- and they will not cycle most semi auto firearms.
