Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

I installed a peep sight on my Savage Model 42 earlier this week. Started sighting it in. Hope to shoot it more in next couple days.

Nice, always wanted one of those. Guy has a deluxe on our local trader page for sale but I just bought a Henry 410 so I’m forcing myself to use self control. I don’t need two 410’s and I don’t want to sell the Henry.
Is the 42 the new style with the composite stock? I sure like the look of them so I hope you can get a picture posted.

Re: Savage .22/410
It is the one with composite stock. Pretty much all composite. It’s mostly my everyday carry during the summer. I keep it with me on the utv and in the shop. The 410 comes in handy. There’s a spring with a cane patch in the bottom behind my house and there’s plenty of rattlesnakes that like my back yard and have to be relocated.

Here’s the results after installing the peep sight. I shot propped on side of my utv. Hope to fine tune it in next couple days. Maybe this afternoon.

Nothing to Bragg about for sure, but got the peep sight close. The rest is up to me. The 410 is what keeps me from liking this gun more. Hopefully you can zoom in on picture and see why. It’s not choked and pattern spreads fast. This picture is only 15 yds. It’s good during summer for snakes and such, but not for squirrel hunting.

Re: Savage .22/410
Interesting, I didn’t know these weren’t choked. I always thought this would make a great grouse gun with the choice of 22 or 410. How bout a picture of your firearm?graywolf wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 9:38 pmNothing to Bragg about for sure, but got the peep sight close. The rest is up to me.

Re: Savage .22/410
Why don't you talk to a good gunsmith about putting some choke in that 410? I believe that there is a procedure known as a jug choke that can be used. Maybe not as good as a factory full choke but a lot tighter than an open cylinder.
