So I've loaded 5 different charges beneath 125gr XTP's. 16.0, 16.5, 17.0, 17.5, and. 18.0 grains of H-110
Just as soon as this social distancing subsides, I'll try it out.
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

I just picked up a model 1873 in .357M/.38SP. (Modern era, brand new vintage.) Looking forward to doing some load tests.

That is a very nice looking rifle. Just remember not to hot rod a toggle link action.

Good looking rifle. I hope she shoots as good as she looks. 357 leverguns are fun for sure. Hope to see your range report soon.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: My new Winchester
Yep - glad to see Winchester is making a 'basic' version of the model '73.
I wish at a minimum however they would have maintained an octagon barrel with nose cap for originality.
