I hadn't looked for reviews. Here is a good one.

I got a UPS tracking number from Henry Warranty Services on Friday. My rifle should be here on Wednesday. Hope they were able to figure out what the problem was with accuracy.

Please let us know if they tell you what corrective action they took.

The "Notice of Repair" just said "replaced barrel". No mention of the issues with the original barrel. So it's off to the range this weekend to see if this one performs a little better.

Picked up a BB Brass today. It is very heavy compared to the steel model. The bore is mighty small compared to the heavy octagonal barrel.

The polish on the brass is truly exceptional. The blue is fantastic. Fit and finish of the stock is well above the competition.

Should have my hands on one of these sometime this week.
Always thought it would make a great farm gun. When Henry started shipping them last year I chased up the Aussie distributor about them. They didn't have plans to bring any in at that stage but said if they received orders form dealers they would.
That was early September so I put a deposit down with a dealer and received confirmation last Thursday they had it in stock and it was shipped Friday to my local dealer.
You could say it has been a bit of a wait.

When I ordered I couldn't find any info on if they would feed 32swl, happy to hear they do for most people as I have about 1000 cases.
The wait did give me plenty of time to chase up some gear, already have dies from loading 32swl but have managed to get hold of a few hundred AE 100gr factory loads and 32H&R brass.
