“henry rifles”

Remington’s new 360 Buckhammer straight-wall cartridge is optimized for lever-action rifles, deadly and accurate out to 200-plus yards.

Starting at 12:00 p.m. EST on Thurs., Oct. 13, the limited-edition Henry rifles will be available exclusively through Henry Repeating Arms’ website, while supplies last.

Here’s a closer look at some of the best hunting rifles introduced this year.

Henry Repeating Arms has begun its 25-year celebration as one of the country’s largest long-gun manufacturers and lever-action manufacturers.

The Big Boy Color Case Hardened Side Gate is a smooth-cycling lever gun, and the action is a masterpiece. When properly maintained and oiled, this beauty will offer reliable performance for years to come.

Phoenix Weaponry has announced they are launching reproduction flip-up sights for 1873 Winchester Model No. 62B rifles, and a red-dot mount for Henry rifles.

The New Original Henry Rifle is true to Henry’s 1860 patterns and patents, and virtually identical aside from adjustments required to adapt to the .44-40 Win. and .45 Colt centerfire rounds that replaced the long-obsolete rimfires.

A quick-handling lever-action excels in situations where seconds count, but like any rifle is only as good as the hunter who’s carrying it.

While both are excellent choices for an all-around dangerous game cartridge, which offers the best performance for hunters? Contributor Philip Massaro takes a closer look at what makes each cartridge tick.
