Not a Henry owner. At least not yet, anyways. I am a huge fan of the break barrel single shot rifle. Always wanted a T/C Contender rifle. Could not afford them, so I settled for the H&R/NEF Handi Rifle.
I have been waiting for the Henry single shot in 308 to show up in my neck of the woods. I think it would serve me well. The only complaints I have heard about the Henry single shot is they tend to have heavy triggers, around 7 pounds.
Also looking at the T/C Contender G2. I can get one with a 6.5 Grendel barrel. Cost about twice again what the contender would cost. I could save a hundred dollars by going with a factory chambering, the 7-03 Waters intrests me, and I am a big fan of the 30-30.
Decisions! Hoping to get some good info on the Henry Single Shot here!
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

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.......

Welcome to the forum from CT. And, my guess is that when you own your first Henry, you will be happy with it.Greg_R wrote:Not a Henry owner. At least not yet, anyways.

Welcome from Central Oregon and you didn't 'settle' for a n NEF Handi-Rifle - you found one of the best kept secrets in a SS rifle - I have one myself and love it!

What part of NC? Maybe somewhere I am familiar with or just drive to. I really want to hold one in my hands before I order. I am shure one will fit me, but I know the T/C fits me.
