Henry Rifle question
Henry Rifles is a sponsor for my company's channel. I've always wanted one and I'm finally deciding to get one. The question I have is what caliber. I have a .22 bolt rifle, but the thought of either the 30-30 or 45-70 sounds cool as well.
Do any of you have a Henry and what caliber would you get? It would be mostly a range gun for me.

I like the looks of the 45-70 Steel receiver.
Not sure I'd want to carry a brightly colored receiver in the woods

Henry are the chit!! I want to get my boy one a .22 when he gets older. Great guns.
FYI get the 44mag try to avoid the .357. They have issues cycling, they have a reputation for this. some guys get them they work perfect and some guys get them and they never cycle right at all. Good luck...enjoy!! FYI if its the shiney brass, it would not be a great woods rifle because it would stick out like a sore thumb.....just my opinion!

I have a 22 long rifle that I found for $329 at my local Wally World. It has a smooth lever action. I bought it for my grand children to shoot down the line, so I haven't tried it out yet.

Any of their rifles would work for me....the .357's did have a cycling issue as said before. I never did hear the exact cause/repair. For me....45/70
