Hello from Minnesooota:
Been shooting most of my life. Got my first 22 at age 12. I am on my third Henry now. 22 Golden Boy, 17 Varmint Special, and now a 357 Mag brass receiver Big Boy.
We live on a primitive lake in forty acres of woods and have been here since 1983. I don't shoot much on the property because it scares the critters away, but belong to two ranges and shoot at least once a week.

Re: Hello from Minnesooota:
Welcome from the beautiful Show-Me-State, Cooperhawk!
You sure have chosen some purty-looking Henrys, especially the GB and a .357 BBB. Lots of bright & shiny accented by beautiful walnut furniture. Are your Henrys newer, or you've broken them in well already?
Sounds cool that you keep your forty-acres as a safe, quiet sanctuary for your critters. Good for you....good for them.
Enjoy the Forum!

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.......
