Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

Hello From Southern IN
Hey guys,
JM marlin guy here, but since there rifle prices are going out of sight for a used one, and all the great things I have heard about Henry rifles. Here I am!!!
I am really looking into a Big Boy Steel Case color/hardened in 357. Reading on the forum, that the new 44 henrys are in 1:20 twist, but they are still using 1:38 twist barrels. Plus I have been wanting a 357 lever gun. I will stil have my 44 mag 1894 to shoot bambi with too, but ammo is pretty high for it, to you know shoot other things like targets and cans.
I will not be posting an awful lot, as there plenty of info to read thru.

Welcome mournack! From Western North Carolina!
I have a BBS 357. Very versatile. Affordable as a target/plinker, yet within a reasonable distance, will easily drop Bambi.

I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.
