My dad had a octagon barreled one in 22 shot that looked brand new. He had from the early 30's. It was a "gallery rifle" option. He sold it to a collector friend for a lot of money, but I got all the ammo. I much prefer my 1906 S,L,LR. The Remington 512 barrel on it shoots just fine.

All 1890's are caliber specific, meaning there are none marked "22 Short, Long, Long Rifle".

22 Short only is by far the most common.

The .22 Short is the most common caliber of the Model 189/90 rifles.
