Just found a 1953 catalogue of Parker-Hale. In there it gives the spec. of ICI .22 rimfire ammo (WD ammo was usually made by ICI ).
.22 Long Standard
bullet weight 30 grains
muzzle velocity 1025 fps
energy per ft lb 70
.22 Short Standard
bullet weight 30 grains
muzzle velocity 925 fps
energy per ft lb 57
