Has anyone shot the Henry Octagon ~ Frontier Model?

I really like the looks of it, but I'd like some input before a blind buy.
Please give me a range report.

Yes, I own this model. It shoots great, is easy to hold offhand, and is a real bargain (available at Buds for $320). Know that the receiver is not steel and is painted, but neither of these factors affects the performance or durability of the rifle, IMO. Henrys are known for their butter-smooth action and reliability.

Thanks for the feedback jhansman.

What is the receiver made of?
