Yup, it sure will. I own one and really like it, pretty accurate and a fun little plinker. And it will shoot 22lr, 22long, and 22short equally well one of the joys of a lever action. Hope this helps.

Jason, it will cycle 22 shorts as well as 22LR, see video here >>>> youtube.com/watch?v=hswLOWAU-EI ....Have a great day!

Jason, yes Sir, it was designed to cycle 22 long Rifle, 22 Long and 22 Short equally well. Cheers and stay safe!

It will shoot and cycle 22LR with no issues, it will shoot 22 short safely but will likely not cycle.
