[Chuckh65]

Was just on the cabelas website the 308 is in stock,just thought I'd put that out there

[White Squirrel]

Nice that they are finally arriving.

[Chuckh65]

Yes it is,can't wait to put one in my hands

[JEBar]

if we were in the market for a Henry Long Ranger, the 308 would be our caliber of choice .... really looking forward to hearing reports from folks who buy and use them

I'd really like to get my hands on one in .223 and try it out.

I'm with you there. It would be a nice companion to my Ruger American Ranch rifle.

What type of optic/mount combo are you considering?

I finally found the load that works in mine, hornady 165 gr btsp Winchester brass,cci 200 primer and 45 gr of varget. Best 5 shot group is .930. With a clean barrel it starts out at 2 inches after about 10 shots it really tightens up.

What distances were you shooting?

Um... have you posted any pics of your Long Ranger? We're visual learners here.

[Rdrcr56]

All shots were at 100 yards, and I posted a picture over on the is the long ranger a myth page.

I saw one at Cabela's yesterday. My honest first impressions on seeing one in person? It looked:

1. Short
2. Plain

To be fair, I didn't ask to handle it, as the sales people were very busy. It did look well-made, as I would expect from a Henry rifle. Would I buy one? Yes, I could see owning one.

[ditto1958]

Price at Cabela's is a bit high, too. I suspect, though, that when other stores get them, they'll cost less.

[JCN]

Seems like Cabelas got the first run. I don't live anywhere near one though.

Great looking bolt gun . I don't care for the red plastic stock .............

[ditto1958]

Has anyone seen or read an reviews on the Long Ranger?

I go right past the one in Hamburg, Pa. about once a month. I have dropped a lot of money there in the past and I like to eat at their deli and look at all their mounts and wildlife displays. Next time I might just stop on the way back and see what one of those new Henry's look like. But, I am not going to buy one.
