Smallbore Gallery Rifle requires a Semi Automatic rifle chambered in 22lr ammunition which means that it can be practiced or competed on a range which is rated for .22 pistols or rifles and does not require a range which is rated for the more high velocity rifle calibres.

The most common firearms used in competition in Ireland are the Ruger 10/22 variants and Browning Buckmark but any semi automatic .22 rifle capable of holding 6 rounds would be permitted.
