I have a Ruger Blackhawk 357 that I also shoot 38. What I do is alternate between the two on range trips. I am aware of the issue with a steady diet of 38. The reason I bought the HBB 357 was to go with my Blackhawk and my 38 revolver.

Every time I go to the range I take the BBB in 357/38 ... I shoot a range of pistols that I own but the Henry is like the icing on the cake ...and you save the icing for last. It is a sweet rifle ... Congratulations and enjoy.

I enjoyed my Henry 22 carbine so much I bought a BBB carbine in 45 last year and then turned around and bought a Blackhawk in 45Colt to go with it. I enjoy that so much I decided to buy a BBB carbine in 357 last Saturday. I’ve had it to the range 3 times this week and really enjoy it too. Looks like I’m going to have to spring for a Blackhawk in 357/38 & 9mm now.

I never paid much attention to lever guns until my wife gave me the 22 for my 70th birthday and now I’m hooked and she has a Henry Carbine 22 also. Actually it’s the one she gave me for my birthday so I went out and bought myself another one.

I did the same when I bought my BBS in .357 Mag. I went out and bought an EMF/Pietta Deluxe Californian SAA in .357. A fine lever gun needs a SAA gun as a companion.
