Just picked up mine today. .357. beautiful and think Henry may have fixed the triger. while I don't have any way to measure the lbs. on the pull I'm guessing from pistols I own it's about 4 to 5 lbs. very smooth.

Congrats! Based on Al's inquiry and your response, you may be the first owner of a Brass SS (at least to come forward), so many of us will be interested in your impressions, range reporting and, of course, pictures!

Congrats again!

really good to hear .... looking forward to your range and use reports ....please revisit our How Many ? thread where you added your Evil Roy and make sure your 357 becomes part of our community's total

Nice to see someone has one here. Im also interested as to how you like it after shooting it. At present time I have gone back and forth as to what caliber to go with. Might just need to get one in 357 brass version as theres no such thing as to many 357's

Looks Good Matt. Im curious as to how you like it once you shoot it. I have my eye on one as well. I have a scope on the steel model but once I find a round it likes I may go to a dot as well just like them better for plinking.

Hate to say it, but I haven't gotten a chance to shoot her yet. looks like it will probably have to wait till next weekend. Have dry fired her and she feels sweet.

You really need a pink Henry towel to show off the splendor of that rifle.

That's a beauty, Matt, and I think maybe the first Brass single shot shared here by a member. Great looking lumber! Can't wait to hear your range reports.
While all my other Henrys are straight-stocked EXCEPT for this 223 SS I just picked up, the straight stock of the Brass Single Shots seems "straighter," so I am just interested in you you feel with it lined up, shoulder "fit," etc.
Al's got me all up and interested in your fine choice!
