Guess they didn't know how many people wanted a 41.
I did change out the loop, but as far as accuracy once you find that right ammo combo, well she speaks for herself.

She won't be going anywhere anytime soon, but
I still like those carbines though.

Re: Big boy steel carbine
My BIL's BB Steel in .22 mag got me jonsing for one in .357. He got it for a great price, after I spotted it at my LGS; they sell lots of ARs and used lever guns often sit around, so they took an offer.
I use that caliber for varmints, and he's really found how great it shoots too. His grandson is a terror with it, a born marksman.

Re: Big boy steel carbine
If I am fortunate enough to add another lever to the list, a .357 carbine is likely to be the next one. I think that length is incredibly handy and like the fact the .357 is a little cheaper to shoot factory ammo through than the .327 or .41.

Re: Big boy steel carbine
A few months ago I noticed a Big Boy brass .357 sitting on the rental rack at my local range.
I had just picked up my Big Boy steel .327 and was in a "Henry mood".
Asked if they would be interested in selling the .357, I was surprised when they said yes, and told me $500 out the door.
When I got it home and did some checking, I found my newly acquired Big Boy was less than 1 year old!
It had a very small chip out of the butt stock (since replaced), but otherwise in pristine condition, after a good cleaning.
I doubt it had more than a couple hundred rounds through it.
Very accurate and soft shooting.
Love all my Henry's!
