Dean, Mark, and John, CCI SRG may be a possible ammo solution. 21 grain compressed copper powder polymer binder bullet.

I would be interested in taking a shot at restoring a gallery like that. Whatever the expense, it would be wonderful when finished. Is it for sale? Where is it? By the way, a fully restored gallery was auctioned or raffled at the first PGCA Meeting at Nashville. I think that was about 1998.

Fred,

Thanks for the link to the restored Coney Island Shooting Gallery at the NFM. I am the original poster of this thread and was hoping they might say something about the camera in the target that took your picture (as shown in my post) if you hit the bulls eye.



Brings back great memories.

The SRG's are mighty fast, and Long Rifle to boot... My gallery rifle (62A Winchester Pump) is chambered for Shorts only.

John, I agree the SRG Long rifle ammo at over 1600fps is probably too fast and that folks would want a round they could use in the older .22 short gallery guns. That is why yesterday I said the SRG "may" be a solution, not "is the" solution. I was referring to the type of bullet it uses and probably should have made it more clear what I meant. Sorry for any confusion I may have caused. I called CCI this morning (5/26) and discussed with one of their engineers his thoughts on the feasibility of loading a SRG bullet in a .22 short case at lower velocity and its suitability for the steel target shooting gallery application. Please send me a PM if you would like to discuss this further.

Snap Cap, You beat me to it, I was going to contact them today...
Did they say if the bullets would 'splatter'? They'd definitely need to be frangible, and being light is a plus for gallery target longevity.

Thought I would bring this back up rather then start a new post. Picked up Remington model 12 B Gallery Special. Very nice exterior condition , but the bore is a little rough. Took it apart and started cleaning things up today. Bought a 100 rounds and of shorts and will shoot it next week. Made in 1913
Any recommendations on 22 bore cleaning?
