It's a .22 short rifle...says it on the barrel...just trying to understand why you couldn't run .22lr in it

22 short is a shorter case. Does 22 lr even chamber? 22 lr is also more powerful

Yea it's a little bolt action squirrel gun...the .22lr will chamber and fire I'm just not sure if I should be doing it or not...I found some old .22 shot shells that I know won't feed in my 10/22 due to the crimped tips so I'd have to run them through 1 at a time so I was wondering if I could run them in the .22 short bolt rifle...if not maybe I'll try to see if they will feed in my nylon 66 tube fed

Are you sure your barrel does not say 22 shot.
You say it has no rifling? These are know as garden or snake guns. Often used on birds and rats up close like in a barn. I enjoyed shooting wasps when I had mine.
A 22lr should not chamber in a 22short chamber.

Yes you can probably chamber a 22lr in a short as the case and bullet are the same diameter. Although the bore is slightly smaller.

22 shot shell will not cycle any semi autos.
Typing fail, reading fail. From post 5:
He is not trying to shoot bullets, trying to shoot #12 shot from a tapered shell that fits in the chamber. (Not the plastic capsule modern shot shells, but the old school shells.) My only advice would be to try to Google the pressure each is loaded to. It seems that it should be OK if only have a few...
Edit: typed on my phone. Number six font is so bigger than number five... no chance I can change it.

i want to shoot both regular .22 lr and these shot shells
i had a reading fail...i must have not read the barrel very well...says it shoots all .22...it just said it underneath instead of side by side photos coming...my grandfather called it a squirrel gun
thanks for all the help fellas...i guess i should have done my homework first and just looked at the rifle a little better...i still have to look it up when i have some time as i still don't know if the barrel is rifled or not...i think it isn't but i'm not positive
According to this manufactured between 1914-1919...

Here is a video with 20 views comparing the 1904 to two other single shot rifles of the era. The 1904 starts at about 13:25. Not a professional production but there is some interesting information about the years of production and the .22 extra long cartridge.
