Newbie with a new Henry
Picked up a Big Boy 357 mag in a local private sale. Accuracy with my handloads is very impressive at 50 yards. Waiting for 357 mag brass to come in so I can work up warmer loads.

Re: New To Henry Rifles
Welcome to the family from Oklahoma, formerly VA. I have the 357 big boy carbine and have found it to be a great shooter and the wife loves it as well. I added Skinner Sights to help old eyes... and from the first, a huge improvement. Jump right in and post, about anything. We like it all. Trucks, fishing, Cars, but like another member said.... PICS, we like pics. But, like family, someone might pic on you, but all in good fun. That's all the mods will allow, You know, like family. ("You call that a fish? We call that BAIT!"
)
First shots with the Henry:
