I have been using a lot more standard-velocity...
.22LR's lately. They are more available than HiVel and cost less, too (but still not cheap).
One thing I have noticed is that the StdVel cartridges burn more dirty than HiVel ones. This is with two different brands of StdVel cartridges vs a half-dozen types of HiVel. The first patch through the bore is much darker for StdVel and it takes 2 or 3 more patches to completely clean the gun. Cannot tell any difference in practical accuracy, though.
