    Gallery or saloon shooting was done in Europe since about 1850, when it was common for people to go about armed and shooting was was normal in every day life. Called gallery or saloon shooting because that was where it was usually done, in the saloon or gallery in your house. Thus low loads to restrict noise and penetration. Origin of the BB cap and .22 Short I believe.
