DAVID WALLACE Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) Opponents of stringent limits on weapons use, with a crushing Senate victory behind them, have made an apparently successful move to bypass a major House obstacle and rip some key provisions from the 1968 Gun Control Act.

Concentrated opposition from Northeast senators failed Thursday to halt, the effort, sponsored by Sen. Wallace F. Bennett, to eliminate registration provisions for purchasers of shotgun and rifle ammunition. The Utah Republican temporarily abandoned a bid to also revoke controls on .22 caliber ammunition. Bennett's legislation, supported by the Nixon administration, goes to the last year voted against including shotgun, rifle or 22 caliber ammunition in the bill.

Through Bennett's parliamentary maneuvering, the legislation will go through the congressional tax and finance committee pipeline-rather than the normal judiciary arrangement. Rep. Emanuel E. Celler, D- N.Y., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and a longtime advocate of gun registration, told a reporter Thursday he sees nothing be could do to block the Bennett proposal. In the House, the Senate bill now falls under the jurisdiction of the Ways and Mean 4 Committee 'headed by Rep.

Wilbur Mills, who voted against the 1968 Gun Control Act. Sen. Thomas Dodd, whose judiciary subcommittee also was bypassed when Bennett reintroduced the bill in July to get around Celler, headed the opposition to Bennett's proposal Thursday. A 65-19 vote turned back Dodd's attempt to table, meaning kill, the ammunition came up in the form of an amendment to a non-controversial bill extending the interest equalization tax which expired Sept. 30.

Then, the amendment passed, 65-16. This vote contrasted sharply with the Senate's 41-36 decision last year, in the wake of the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, to include coverage of shotgun, rifle and .22 caliber ammunition in the bill.

Bennett contended then-President Lyndon B. Johnson's Treasury Department, in administering the law, went beyond congressional intent by requiring ammunition buyers to provide their physical descriptions and the caliber and quantity of the ammunition purchased.
