*I was going to post this in the other thread, but as the post got longer and more detailed I thought it deserved its own thread. I received my Henry Big Boy Revolver Birdshead model today. Here are the basics; The DA trigger is heavy, but not gritty. It feels like an average amount of travel...

Whaaaaaat? Where did this come from? Interesting. Very interesting. “Furthering the modularity of the Homesteader is its magazine well. The Homesteader has the capability to accept Henry’s proprietary magazines, Glock Magazines, Sig 320 magazines, and Smith & Wesson M&P magazines.” :what...

Recently ordered and received a new Henry pump H003T rifle. This one sure is stiff. More so than it looks like in all of the videos I have watched while contemplating the purchase. I understand it might not be as slick as the lever version, but this one is actually difficult to cycle. I...

Lets say you had a chicken coop 50 yards or less from your backdoor. You wish to protect it from Coyotes > Fox > Racoon. There are two rifles that have got my interest lately and the chicken coop is simply what I tell myself and the S.O. the purpose of the rifle would be. The two rifles are, A...

Hello. I recently purchased a new Henry Frontier Octagon .22 LR rifle (Hoo1T). When I unload it, one or two (usually two) rounds get stuck in the magazine tube and I have to shake the rifle, muzzle up, to get them loose, or cycle them through the ejection port. Does anyone have any idea what...

Hello, I think this is my first post here. I'm a bit active on Canadian gun forums, and have been reading THR posts for years. Henry has a new rifled barrel shotgun, and I don't think they've made it to Canada yet. Has anybody on here tried one? In particular, I'm interested in how they compare...

Hello everyone! I’m looking into purchasing a lever action rifle chambered in .357 mag, and I’m debating between a Marlin 1894, or the Henry Big Boy steel. The lack of a loading gate on the Henry doesn’t bother me, but I would like to purchase the higher quality rifle. I’ve heard the Henry has...

Hello! I’ve been looking into a nicer .22 rifle and I’ve had my eye on the Henry Small Game rifle with Skinner sights and the large lever loop, but I was wondering if there were any recommendations for a high quality lever action .22 preferably made from wood and steel. Thanks!

Hello! I’m looking around for a simple, rugged, reliable hunting rifle. Most likely chambered in .308, and I was looking at the Henry Single Shot rifles. I would like this rifle to last a long time with minimal maintenance, and ideally be able to be passed down. Should I consider this single...

Howdy, I recently acquired a Henry rifle in 357 mag, and I'm doing a little research before I get started reloading for it. I keep on running in a circle, so maybe some of you folks can set me straight. Here's what I want, in order of importance: 1-cheap to reload 2-good accuracy at 100-150...

Hi all, I've been reloading quite a bit of .38 special and .357 magnum lately, and I'm looking towards a .357 lever rifle for hunting whitetail and further standardizing on that ammo choice. The two I've come across the most are the Rossi 92 and the Henry Big Boy. I like the Henry - smooth...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0CPei0vQOI I got in some range time with a Henry Pump in 22 Magnum. Kinda funny that a lot of the people I have talked to didn't even know Henry made a pump. Its not a stellar review, but it did leave me wanting a centerfire version.

Can a Henry hold up to hot 45 colt loads that can be fired from a Ruger? I have a couple Henrys now of different calibers and am wondering about getting a Henry in 45 colt. If I go in the woods, etc with both firearms it would be nice to shoot the same caliber and same loads out of both guns...

Does anyone here have some hands-ons experience with the Rossi 62 and the Henry pump .22? I'd like to get one or the other for some action shooting (I don't want and cannot justify a Winchester pump for this application.) The key features are reliability (they gotta feed!), durability and...

I have Lyman's 49th edition Reloading Handbook. For the .45-70 Govt, the table of contents lists three things: 1. .45-70 Govt (For 1873 Springfield) 2. .45-70 Govt (For 1886 Winchester and 1895 Marlin) 3. .45-70 Govt (For Ruger No. 1 and No. 3 only) Which of these would be okay to use if...
