Hello, new to these forums, not new to firearms. For many years I have been wanting a "Henry" in 45 LC to go with my side arm LC for both hunting "deer" sized game, firepower upon the chance I encounter wolves that are frequent where I roam, and possible CAS down the road.
I have been mainly intent upon a Henry Big Boy, but came upon an ad here locally for a Cimmarron 1860 Civil War replica in 45 LC for $800. My search of prices show this to be a good deal, and I do like the image appeal of the Cimmarron to the original 1860.
I would prefer to shoot the same loads I shoot out of my ruger 45LC revolver, "Cor-Bon" 45 Colt+P 300 gr JSP, 1300fps & 1126 ftlbs.
You thoughts?? All comments would be greatly appreciated since if the Cimarron fits the bill I dont think it will last long.
Thanks for your help. Slim.
