I'm watching another lever gun thread with interest and didn't want to derail that one - hence the new thread. I want a 357mag carbine and think Henry's Big Boy Steel looks like a great option (I can get one for about $700).
However, I see little love and a bit of hate for Henry here. Help me understand why.
My primary use for it would be whitetail hunting (Ohio) and my secondary use would be punching paper / plinking. My primary requirements are durability, accuracy, looks, and cost - in that order.
I like Henry's loading strategy - never could reliably top off my Win 94 anyway. Loading gate is ok but I don't care one way or another.
So do Henrys just stink out loud and I'm not seeing it or what?
