Yes, I have a Henry single shot in 308 Win. I have not had a chance to hunt with it but it is a nice little rifle, and it shoots pretty good, especially after replacing the trigger/hammer spring!

308 is one of my favorite bottleneck calibers .... what do you plan to hunt with yours .. .. do you load your own ammo .. .. be sure to follow the link below to where you can add your Henry to our community's totalBamaFaninMilton wrote: ↑Thu Jul 23, 2020 7:55 pmYes, I have a Henry single shot in 308 Win.

Welcome to the forum from Kansas. The trigger pull on the single shots seem to be the one negative of them. What did you do to the trigger/hammer spring.

Re: Greetings from the Redneck Riviera!
Yes, I plan on hunting with it, and I do reload as well. Haven't really seriously attempted to work up a load for my Henry yet, but I'm getting to it soon!JEBar wrote: ↑Thu Jul 23, 2020 8:14 pm308 is one of my favorite bottleneck calibers .... what do you plan to hunt with yours .. .. do you load your own ammo .. .. be sure to follow the link below to where you can add your Henry to our community's totalBamaFaninMilton wrote: ↑Thu Jul 23, 2020 7:55 pmYes, I have a Henry single shot in 308 Win.
