I got to shoot a .45 Colt recently and was surprised that it did not have too much recoil, but sure put some wide holes in the target. My next Henry will most likely be Long Ranger in 556/223.Rifletom wrote: ↑Thu Dec 01, 2022 8:00 am.45 Colt. For a larger cartridge, the Colt is really mild mannered in recoil, especially in a rifle. Enjoy your Henry
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

357 is my new favorite, This state right in the middle isn't exactly easy to navigate for ammo and weapon purchases and promise to make it easier since the filthy rich hotel trust fund boy was re-elected governor.

Today is the big day and my wait 10 day wait period finally ended thank God. I just picked up my 357 Big Boy Classic from my LGS and plan to hit the range this weekend or tomorrow. Pictures to follow. How do I register it with Henry? I can't find anything for that on their website?

Re: Just Bought A 357 Big Boy Classic
That is what I was thinking. My Dad's friend bought a used Henry 22 which had some sort of problem. So this non-original owner sent it to Henry for help and they sent him back a new rifle. Makes me want to buy another Henry already just because of that. My next one will most likely be the Henry Long Ranger 556/223.markiver54 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 08, 2022 5:58 pmHenry will honor ANY Henry rifle issue.

Re: Just Bought A 357 Big Boy Classic
I have three Henrys but no brass receivers. A lot of the members here have mentioned using Renaissance wax though.

Long Ranger 556/223 is an excellent choice. It was my 2nd purchase.SWFan27 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 08, 2022 7:11 pmMy Dad's friend bought a used Henry 22 which had some sort of problem.
