| Wow that is one good looking gun greyhair, you will have to post a video of you shooting it. Nice pick up, I am still waiting for the weather to clear to head up your way and ride your trails. Untill then I hope you have a good time shooting. |

Those Henrys are great. I had never shot one before, but after the first time shooting a .22, I went and got one. They have such smooth actions and I love that they hold 16 shells in a tube.
I'd love to have a .44 Big Boy one day. |

I came SO close to getting the .44 but the .357 is just right for me...and 10 rounds no problem. If it wasnt so cold Id have already shot the thing...BRRRR! |

| Don't shoot your eye out with that thing! I have always like the looks of the lever action rifles. |

| Nice! I have an affinity for lever-actions. I have a Model 94 in .44 Mag and a Marlin 1895 in 45-70 Govt. Now I guess I better add a Henry to even out the mix. :haha: |

Well I took the family out to the range saturday....dont be mad, none of the camera phones or reg cameras were working :ne_nau: BUT, between all of our new armament I think we had a couple 1000 rounds to put out & test with. My wife shot her new pink cricket .22 - she's stoked! she wants another gun, AND a bunny permit!:ne_nau: :2thumbs: & we had two of our boys with and their new .22s, and with my waltherppks 9mm and YES, my new rifle we had a BALL blowing the shit out of targets & tree stumps we brought along. I am so impressed with the Henry! I just put about 70 .357 rounds through it this time. It's a dead accurate shot! ....Oh, we brought apples too...needed small targets...the boys are too good of shots to just use the regular stuff, besides the range frowns on shooting stuff like clay pots :lol8: I'll have to go again and take some photos :2thumbs:
........now Im looking at a Henry .22mag - :mrgreen: |
