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!

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.

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!
