It would be interesting so see the ranking and number of Henry's sold, by caliber.

You could email them and ask, but they may not want to release that info for business reasons.

I went the opposite direction ;) . I had three H 015 single shots (.45-70, .243 and 30-30) and an H 09 30-30 lever action before I finally got around to buying a Frontier .22. But I did get there :) .

per Henry's website, they offer 44 Mag in 25 of their lines, 45-70 in 21 lines, and 45 Colt/357 in 20 lines .... considering they offer 22 LR in 46 lines it would be reasonable to believe that rim fires still constitute the largest portion of their production

The .22s are the most popular among new shooters, as gifts for kids, the choice of small game hunters and cost the least.
I would expect them to sell twice as many .22s as all the rest combined.

I started with a Henry Big boy GCCC in 45 colt, it matches with my Uberti 6 shooter case colored
might have to think about another Henry in 357??
Have 3 Rugers, sr9c, sr40 & Security 6 (my old duty gun)
a pair of 1911's
2 Smiths, a 40 & a k22 target
I love shooting them all
I roll my own for them all but the 22
My boys don't know about the Henry yet, their putting dibbs on their favorites. If I have anything to say about it they wont get them for a looooooong time

With Marlin cranking out dubious quality rifles for several years, and Winchester requiring a mortgage re-finance to purchase, Henry filled a void in the market by providing good quality products at a reasonable price. When when they do mess up on a rifle, they are very good at making things right the vast majority of times.

Currently, here in Mid-Tenn, we have black bears migrating in from the East, cougars moving in from the West. Myself & my 45/70 are just waiting til the bison start heading this way, :lol:

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