bhunted 887 Posted July 5, 2016 A lever action demands a single action revolver to partner with it. For sure. My Single Action revolver was depressed and constantly whining in the safe. So.... [emoji6] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

planenut 59 Posted July 6, 2016 Nice rifle. I'm curious though was that silver boy made in Bayonne or the Wisconsin plant that they have? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MartyZ 691 Posted July 6, 2016 Bayonne according to the roll mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MartyZ 691 Posted July 18, 2016 Well, I took it to the range this past Saturday and I must say this gun is incredible. The action is like butter, I had a remlin 336 that I eventually sold because the action sucked. On the Henry, the action is smooth as snot. Also, recoil is comparable to an AR15, probably due to the heavy barrel. And as far as accuracy goes, my very first three rounds out of it I got a little over a half inch group at 25 yards, all 3 holes where touching each other, so that's 2 MOA using cheap magtech ammo. I think at this point the Henry is my favorite gun . And today I have a skinner ghost ring rear sight coming in, can't wait to see how it compares to the factory sights.

medved11 71 Posted July 26, 2016 Just picked it up today, Henry Big Boy Silver .44 Magnum. Can't wait to take it out to the range. Now I just need a S&W 629 to complete the set. Nice looking rifle! I just picked up a Marlin 30-30 last week. To be honest, I didn't have any real interest in lever guns at all until a buddy let me try his out a couple weeks ago and I was immediately hooked. I'm now looking for a Marlin 1894 in .44 mag (and considering rounding it all out with a 45-70). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
