For the sake of closure and in sensitivity to bobtodrick's and possible other's concern, the final status of the issue I had was addressed in my range report: http://henryrifleforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=4163. In short, I was unaware of additions adjustment of elevation of Henry's buckhorn sights. Jeff at customer service brought it to my attention.
The two concerns I have had could both consider user's familiarization with a Henry H009. Both of which Henry attempted to address. The other was copper fouling which I am understanding to be a characteristic of the rifling process that may lessen the more I shoot it. I expected my Henry to function similarly to my Marlin. But, they both have different buckhorn sights and uses different rifling processes. In any case, they both shoot fine. I just have to spend more time cleaning one more than the other for now.
I am familiar with various firearms. I have even been certified as a marksman with a few of them. I mention this just to illustrate that I experience something I haven't experience previously, and my collaboration with others has allowed my to address my concerns appropriately. I recognized that others may be more experience than I. That is why I ask questions. And, folks on this forum have been very willing to assist. So, thanks everyone for your assistance and patience during my learning process.
Happy shooting!
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry
Oh Henry!
