Re: New Henry rifles
They're made as pretty first priority IMO. They do look nice.

Re: New Henry rifles
Care to elaborate a bit? The fit, finish & function thus far has been 100% and a pleasure to shoot & own. Yes, the walnut, styling is "pretty", but I see nothing on the rifle that suggests they prioritized looks over function. One thing that I enjoy is they will spit out empty brass accurately & consistently enough to land in a bucket a foot off my right shoulder. Not that I don't miss walking to the other side of the range with my R92 to pick up brass.GasGuzzler wrote:They're made as pretty first priority IMO. They do look nice.

Re: New Henry rifles
Neighbor just got a Henry steel in 357. Brought it over to show me, as he has seen me working on all my guns. It is really nice. Smooth. Heavier than the Rossi. Lever isn't quite as easy to work. He was trying to figure out what peep sight to get. I had an extra XS, so put that on for him. Now, we just need to take it and shoot it.

Re: New Henry rifles
Sure enough! Henry Big Boy Steel
They are also offering all weather versions of their 30-30 Win and 45-70 Govt.
Looks like Henry is doing real good!

Re: New Henry rifles
Also see where the above two rifles now are available with octagon barrels and case hardened receivers.

Re: New Henry rifles
I love my Henry .22. But the larger caliber. In the past all the larger calibers have been in brass and heavy. I haven't been to Henry's sight is awhile and WOW. There's much of a selection. But the steel is listed at 7 lbs. That's a big difference from the 8.5 lbs. brass. They're still more expensive than the Rossi, but I might have to start saving my pocket change.
Life isn't about the toys you accumulate, but about the memories your create with those toys and friends.
