I think there has been a crossing of wires here, with some people "mixing
and matching" figures from various sources.

The limits for Gallery Rifle are set by the range safety parameters for the
ranges concerned, and are simply the limits for pistol ranges both outdoor
and indoor. The limits are:

Outdoor Ranges.

Maximum muzzle velocity:      655 m/s        =       2150 ft/sec
Maximum muzzle energy:        2030 Joules   =       1496 ft Lbs


Indoor Ranges.

Maximum muzzle velocity:      520 m/s       =       1706 ft/sec
Maximum muzzle energy:        645 Joules    =       475 ft lbs

The reason for the NRA spec is exactly as you say - it is for use on outdoor
ranges.

Hope this helps.

Yours ever,

Martin.
