Re-introduction from North Carolina

Joined up a while back, just never posted much, if any. I am a huge fan of the H&R Handi Rifles. Was sorry to see them go away, but was elated to see that Henry stepped up to the plate with the Henry Single Shot.

Since I am now a Henry Single Shot owner, I feel worthy to post here!

I just purchased a Henry Brass Single Shot in 357 Magnum. Very happy with it and a worthy replacement for the Handi Rifle I think. I will pair it with my H&R Buffalo Classic Carbine in 45 Colt this weekend and they will vie to see which one comes out on top. Could be a tight finish, the H&R BCC is a good one!

My favorite cartridges are the 357 Magnum, 30-30 Winchester, 22 Hornet, and 45-70. I like the 20 gauge for a shotgun. If Henry would just make their Single Shot in 22 Hornet, I could see a completely new hunting battery!

Well welcome back. Post up those range reviews when you get the chance. I am a .22 Hornet fan also, fun little cartridge. Have a CZ527 in the Hornet and would like a Taylors & Co falling block in one.

Taylors & Company 22 Hornet Would be a grail gun. Of course I would need it’s big brother in 30-30 as well!

a single shot 30-30 offers an opportunity for a handloader to unlock round's full potential .... being able to use highly aerodynamic bullets opens things up to a whole new world
