I bought this rifle in .30-30 and I'm stoked. I've gone almost exclusively to nothing else but pig hunting, and this gun is a tack driver. Most of the time I use my other Henry, a lever action, but sometimes I like to just settle back with a single shot. Exceptional quality for the money. I believe the Imperato family truly care about the quality and finish of their company's products
Good caliber for this gun!
I have this same rifle! What optics did you go with? I am seriously considering a Skinner Sight!
I'm left handed,and from Missouri so I would want 308. And I wish you told us the prices
How do they ost
For a newer gun at the price, it is very nice, I got one in 5.56 nato.
The first hunting rifle I owned was a single shot. It's amazing how fast you can reload when the adrenaline hits.
I have been obsessed with a single shot 45-70 govt for years. This Henry is the nicest one I've seen!
Same with me. 1st single shot I had was a .410 and I loved that gun
I would go with the .357 Mag/.38 Special offering that Henry has in this model. Light, handy and ammo can be found easily.
Ballistics by the inch points to 16” being ideal in .357mag/38sp, seems they missed the mark not making this with a shorter threaded barrel.
I just bought this rifle in 350 Legend and I love this rifle. The fit and finish is amazing. This will be passed down to my grandson!
I have this Henry rifle in .308 and love it.
Single shot rifles are great!! I have a few Ruger no. 1 rifles and of course they're single shot as well. My favorite is my .416 Rigby and 375 H&H Ruger no.1 rifles. I wanted a smaller caliber in a single shot rifle and for the money, the Henry is fantastic!!
I have two Henry’s already , the Big Boy steel carbine large loop in .44 Mag and the .22 mag pump octagon and live them both. I’ll be adding more Henry’s in my safe soon including the single shot in .308 and maybe the long ranger in .308
Yes, I have a Thompson Center Pro Hunter. With it I have muzzle loader 50 cal, 20 GA rifled slug, numerous rifle barrels from 223 to 375 H&H. I love the accuracy and handling. It is not the only long gun I own but it is the most accurate and versatile.
Thanks for the great comments, how often does the 375 get used :) ?
@@guncitynewzealand Mostly never. One of these days I'll screw up my courage and fire it.
I had an H&R Single shot in 243 and it was great, so I am looking at the Henry now that H&R is gone. I used the single shot to work up some hand loads and the 243 is quite a versatile cartridge with bullets available from 50 grain all the way to 208 grain (if I remember correctly) It was a wonderful way to get introduced to reloading and the single shot made the "goodness" / quality of my reloading much more "visible". This rifle looks like a winner.
Check it out a little closer. If you're used to the HR you'll find the trigger pull too heavy, the gun weight too heavy, and, if you mount a scope, the stock configuration ungainly. I was absolutely taken with my beautiful Henry 243 single. It is pretty there in the rack where it stays. Now I'm looking for a 243 HR youth in good used condition. I'll replace the stock with a longer one, hone the action a bit, and take it hunting. In my humble opinion the Henry single platform is more suited for 45 70 or some other heavy short ranged caliber. But, with a 9 pound trigger pull, I'd have to think twice about that.
I have this in the 308 and it’s one of my favorite rifles to shoot
I purchased a New England Firearms Handi-Rifle chambered in .30-30. I have taken good care of the Rifle and it has performed flawlessly in some rather punishing environments and weather conditions. I am looking forward to purchasing a Henry single shot rifle as well.
You will like the Henry, quality difference is night and day.
Getting a 357 magnum soon, I’m thinking my wife and kids can have fun shooting 130 grain 38 special and I’ll have fun with hornady American gunner ammo. Please post more about this rifle
YES!! shooting a 38 spl. in a rifle config. is very good for the young/recoil sensitive who want to move past the 22 lr. I myself am thinking of one to chamber in 357 Maximum.
Thanks for your comments, good on you for getting the family involved
We use them for primitive weapon season in MS. The smallest caliber we can use is a 35 Whelen, so .45-70 is very popular here. We have a few mule deer but a lot of large white tailed deer and large hogs, so the .45-70 does great work to those.
Thanks for the great comment!
My 12 Gauge slug gun is being delivered today. At one time I had a great combo setup, it was an H&R with a 20 gauge bbl a 30-30 bbl and a 22 Hornet bbl. Someone made me an offer I could not refuse. Looking back, what a mistake to have let it go.
I own 2 Henry's in single shot (44mag and 45-70) with the brass receivers. As well as a golden boy. Awesome guns.
Nice! - JK
Yes i wud because i started with a single shot 12 ga and the 4570 is my dream gun of all time and one day i hope to have one
Single shot rifles are great for carrying around. The overall length is short compared to a rifle with a receiver. They are lighter. They are also great for a nice lazy day of range shooting. I have an H&R 223 single shot. I am looking for another single shot. so many great calibers to choose from.
Love mine in .44 mag/.44 special, Weaver 1-4x scope - just right for whitetails, hogs and bear in Florida/Georgia. The rifle loves Buffalo Bore 300 and 270 grain soft points, and just about all quality 240 grain jacketed bullets. 1.5" groups are common.
Hey Michael, thanks for your comment, that sounds like a great set-up! How close are you getting to the whitetail? - FT
@@guncitynewzealand 100 yards
I love my Henry Single Shot in .243. Very light and compact and a fine shooter. These are made in Rice Lake Wi. not too far from me.
Hey Mike, thanks for the comment, what's the recoil like on the 243?
@@guncitynewzealand Pretty light. I highly recommend.
Any relation to Shawn Campbell in Clinton wi
@@mikemattelig5839 No, sorry Mike.
Wouldn't surprise me if Anthony Imperato brought all of Henry's production to Wisconsin, including rimfire. New Jersey is getting progressively more and more unfriendly to the gun industry. Kind of a novelty though, that rimfire Henry guns are made within sight of the New York City skyline. But every Wisconsin made Henry I've bought has been flawless.
I do enjoy a nice break action I have the t\c pro hunter .love it
I'd definitely try one of these before trying a Ruger No. 1. Those are insanely priced. I would like one of these in either .44 Magnum or .450 Bushmaster.
I've always hunted with a single shot I like them a lot more than other types of rifles for deer hunting
These rifles are super accurate also!
I have one and I love it
Love my Henry 308
I bought my Henry single shot in .223 because it's plenty for what I need in Northern Arizona within 150 yards.
I own 3 Henry's. All awesome firearms.
i did get one in 30/30, shoots great, i load lead with gas check shooting about 1850 fps. No kick, just good groups. oh, i cast my own bullets too. Beautiful wood, solid gun. get one or two. hahah Ron
Good video!
A single shot rifle? Yep! I have a Pedersoli Sharps in 38/357 and love it. I just ordered this Henry in 44 magnum. I am also considering one in 308 or even 45/70. I have several 22 lr trainers that are single shot too.
I like single shots a lot!!
Thanks for your comment Craig! - FT
Craig would you be comfortable with using heavy loads like a Buffalo Bore 340gr +P ammo in this Henry rifle? I have a friend who owns a Ruger 44 semi auto and he's affaid he could damage it. I was just wondering if you know is all? Thanks
From what I’ve read, the Henry can take it. After all, they make it in 308 and 45-70. Same frame/receiver as far as I know. I’ve never shot that BB load. I typically stick with traditional 200 and 240 loads. I will use this rifle mostly in woods walk and silhouette shoots. Probably less than full house magnum loads most of the time.
I just bought the brass receiver one. I wanted a Winchester 1885 but the size of this won me over.
I see the lever sitting proud and can envision something catching under it.
A definite buy. I would buy the 45-70. How much are they selling for?
I would want to buy one because it teaches you discipline. And I like to do small game Hunting And target Practice
That's the one I'd get. Good Price nice little package
I've owned many single shot rifles they're my favorite
what are your thoughts compared to the Thompsons?
For $360 at Buds Gun shop in America these things are well worth the price. Beautiful rifles. Great video fellas!
Thanks Mate!
I wish that price still stood!
Now they are MSRP for 600! I saw one in my local gun shop for 559.00. Firearms are a great investment because value seems to always go up.
@@Gerald2121 you can still find deals out there but you really have to look. guns and ammo are always good investments thats for sure.
Love single shots
Im a old man most of my life hunted with a single shot rifle. Mostly 1885 winchesters. Love single shots..
I ordered one yesterday.
Is it a steel receiver, or is it the Zamak material found on the rimfires?
I love Henry rifles. For the $$$ these are great. Extremely well made for many lifetimes...I have the Lever action 22 ..love it..I'd would certainly buy one of these without hesitation...and I think I will
Let us know how you get on with that :) - JK
@@guncitynewzealand indeed sir...Henry's are great. Beautifullly made guns
I just got my 45-70 single Henry. It is primo!
Great to hear Paul! - FT
Yes
You may have seen this elsewhere, I plan on inserting this when ever I see some one talking about Henry. I want to state that I can not believe any company out there, will come even close to the customer service that Henry has. On 1/30/23 they completely wowed me on a gun (.44 BB) that I have had for 13 years, lets just say that there was a little something wrong with it, I had sent it in 2 or 3 times to have it repaired, they did for free each time.
I Happened to buy one of their 45-70 in early January 2023, and noticed that they made a improvement on it, that would have resolved the issue on mine. I emailed them asking them if they could retrofit mine with the improvement, and they replied back same day, they are going to, after they receive mine, send me a brand new one (received 2/24).
I have since added to my collection
H018G .410 Son-in-Law
H004 .22 Daughter
H004 .22 Son
H001 .22 Me
H014Wl .308
H011C Original Henry .45 Colt
H015 45-70 Single Shot
Its almost like I was trying to fill up one of their Beautiful custom gun cabinets that hold 8, which I have also ordered. BTW these are all made in USA. Including the cabinet.
I'm in the market right now for one of these in 357/38 SPL which Henry has recently added to it's lineup.
I'm in Canada and can't find one in stock 'anywhere',...I have some searching to do, I guess.
Thanks for the information on this one gentlemen!
Thanks for your comment Reg!!! - FT
I'd get one in 30/30 and put a low power scope on it. Nice look'n rifle!!
I'm getting one in .30-30 to mate to an old 2-7X Leupold Vari-X II c that is presently going spare.
I'm looking at a 30 30, it will be my first rifle though so I'm debating the single-shot thing:) I really want lever action, just not in my budget at the moment.
geico1975 The price is the same thing that is keeping me from getting a lever action rifle in 30-30!
They are expensive.
The Henry is nice but when you can purchase a Rock Island Arms TK 104 12 gauge for $77 from Buds online gun store. It is made in Turkey and it is excellent quality. Comes with three chokes, trigger lock, has an adjustable rear sight, bead front sight, and adjustable length of pull!!
I will always like to use single shot because of couple of reasons firstly is you are having in mind that you are having only one shot that's why you shoot very carefully and second one is you shot and the game is finished no more complications I am from India and here the procedure of getting gun license is very difficult at present I am having a breach loading if I will get second weapon permission I will surely choose single shot rifle and last but not the least if my government will grant me permission I will purchase from your shop by the way thanks for such a informative video
Very nice rifle. If they chambered it in .257 Roberts I'd buy one straight away.
I want one! A company that is good to us left handers has my seal of approval. I need something in .223 for coyotes and groundhogs and this is my first choice.
Would love to have one in 454 Casull!
Probably my next rifle purchase.. in 243... with iron sights, the old school simplicity and ruggedness is exactly what I need!
I live in New England and thats primarily where I hunt. I'm thinking about picking one up in 243 win for deer hunting up north.
Sounds great! - FT
Yes. i want one in .350 legend
Does anyone know what availability is like in Australia? I've been looking for a good single shot deer rifle, the 308 model would do nicely.
.30-30 to match my 1894 Winchester rifle. I particularly appreciate the rifle having QD sling attachment points. Hmm...maybe a 44 Magnum with Underwood Extreme Penetrators as well. 😀
I'm getting the .30-30 to replace my worn-out Marlin 336. I've had that thing for 43 years and for that whole time, I never needed the contents of the magazine tube.
It's available in
357/38 special
30 - 30
.410
44 magnum
243 Winchester
308
223/556
John Hojnowski I might get one in 30/30...
It's a nice rifle.
@@mdredheadguy1979 that would be a great all purpose rifle
I thought about 38/357 because the ammo is cheaper, and I'd be going to the shooting range a lot
But I like the 30 - 30
John Hojnowski Agreed! That's what I was thinking. Besides, there is just something about the 30/30 that draws me to it....
Couldn't have been all those western type of movies I used to watch with my grandfather when I was growing up...
👍
In the USA these are good value because they are quality and not very expensive. But in Australia these things are over $1000. That’s just too much money for a simple single-shot, especially considering one can buy repeating bolt-action Howa-Remington-Savage-Ruger etc...for $700.
Would definitely buy one an I would choose power an accuracy by taking the 45-70 so that shot will count an be worth it
Nice one Joe! - FT
i do own a 4570 single shoot and i do love it
Thanks Ruben, whereabouts are you from and what type of shooting do you do? - FT
GunCity i am from California to blow off some stress
Sadly I am sending my brand new Henry .410 back after three shots the first shot the shotgun ejected the shell but I had to pry the second out and left the third in so Henry can see what I am talking about. Hopefully it’s a quick and easy fix
The 223 is also 556
It also comes in 30-30 and 357 / 38 Special
And the only other thing I wished that they did was to be able to be taken down like the H&R Handi rifles you can break those down to three parts
Stock forend and Barrel
They can!!!!!!!!!
I’m actually looking to get the 223. For target shooting and hunting.
I got me one in a 30/30 awesome load and gun
Great Roy! Optics or open sights? - FT
I purchased a Henry single shot in .223/5.56 last week from my LGS and didn't check the action until I got home to clean it. The hinge pin is so sloppy that the barrel wobbles 2.5mm at the breach end when the action is open. The hinge pin is so loose it can be pushed out by light thumb pressure. The Henry maintenance video shows the hinge pin needing a punch and hammer to drive it out. I'm very disappointed by the QC at Henry in this rifle. Currently, Henry customer service is closed by COVID-19 so I can't even send it back to get it fixed. Curious if other owners have seen the sloppy hinge pin problem.
I would want a .270 but I do like the gun.
Thanks for commenting! the 308 with a hot load like Hornady Supers' could give you performance close to 270...
they make one in 357, and it's absolutely beautiful.
What about the rear sight HOW TO ADJUST only up & down spring.
Well, it's drilled and tapped for a scope so it leaves room to work with other options. Additionally, there are after market sights that can work in order to make it more versatile
Yes…👍
Have the 223, super fun, super accurate. Have one scope mount left if anyones keen....🤣 44mag next.
I would get the 30/30 caliber version
I really loved mine got it last year..stock broke on it a few months ago took it to my henry dealer to hav sent off that day an havnt heard a work frm henry about it..im getting worried about getting it back..plus its deer season here..
Yikes, hope you get it back soon! - FT
@@guncitynewzealand yes me too...this Saturday is the last day of season..
In the future, at least if you are in the US, contact Henry directly, they will reply back to you usually within one business day, send you a prepaid shipping label. It probably will take about 3 weeks total with ground shipping. I have done this probably 4 times with the 9 Henry's I have, twice for warranty work, twice because I &^%^& up. I have not been charged a penny, even when it was my fault.
absolutely.
I have about $800 in this gun with a senora $150 dollar scope and a sling. This gun will easily do a 3 shot group under an inch. I put 30 rounds in 2 hours through it and had no fliers. Hornady american whitetail it loves and is a tack driver with. If held wrong it can bruise your shoulder but I overcame my flinch using this gun. Mines in 308 weighing a bit over 8lbs
Do I get the sgl shot or the RS92? Strictly for hunting. First gun was an HR 12ga. Hmmmm
I hunt 95% of the time with single shot. H&R & Ruger was my go to guns but now glad to see Henry taking over where H&R left off. Question is trigger and pull weight? Heard Henry single shots are 9lbs or better on trigger? If true, this would be a no sale for me. Any truth to this?
I just bought one a few days ago ..450 BM,I used a pull gauge and found it was 2.5lb on the tip and 3.5lb in the natural
Position half way..I heard about trigger issues in the past and heard they had fixed it..the trigger is amazing
@@ec9697 Perfect!
I own the .243 and the 12 GA slug gun version. Amazing rifles. Highly recommend.
What ammo do u suggest
I like it nice
How do you unload it if you have it loaded but there is no bullet in it
I would choose 5,6X52R thanks!
Il would buy one
I want the 20 gauge, but wish they offered a 28 and a 16 gauge. I grew up with a single shot, Dad always preached 'one shot- one kill'.
Yes but would love to see a surrpressed and lightweight
I am in market for the .243 but am struggling to find one. Is there manufacturing issues with the .243 at Henry?
I've owned several single shot rifles . H&R , and NEF. The H&R Buffalo classic was my favorite , in 45-70. The Henry single is having a serious look at. If the Henry is as strong as the buffalo classic , I'll definitely be getting one in 45-70. Deer don't run far when hit by this caliber. No scope , NO WAY, on a 45-70. It IS NOT needed if u learn your firearm.
Thanks for the comment and also, you need one if your name is Henry! - FT
My choice was a Henry Single .357magnum re-chambered to .357maximum by Mike Bellm. Awesome.
Thanks Jona, what's the new performance of the round? - FT
@@guncitynewzealand Performance is very good, but.....it really depends on which Powder you choose, along with which projectile you pair it with. Nothing new, per se, with the maximum vs any other straight-wall cartridge, the same ballistics carry through, but we all know that. Also, as expected, barrel length plays a large part. The desired twist has been 1:14 , but I am finding it is not as important as the other factors [above]. I also am seeing the most undesirable performance with (any) projectile less than 158gr, lead, plated, or jackets. So far, I have only used 3 barrel lengths, 22 powder/projectile combos, in each barrel, and two twist rates. 180gr has well out- performed all other weights. One projectile I am seriously waiting to try is the new coated Penn Bullets. First will be the 158gr (available), while I attempt to get Mr. Palermo to make some heavier. More to test soon.
I would buy one or two.
Just bought a Henry single shot 30-30
Thanks Mike, let us know how it goes!
Adorei essa arma
Single shot break actions are fairly rare. I like them though, they're nice and simple.
Depends on where you live. I can get a break action in almost any caliber for under $300
I got one in 223 556 the most accurate rifle I've ever had with iron sights
How does it shoot?
When will Ruger American Standard be back in stock?
Hi there, check out the website for what we have www.guncity.com/?q=ruger%20american
I want a 30.30 single shot but I can't find one
It is good for hunting pighoge in forest of southeastasia where targets within 50 yardsranges with open ironsight and the background full of hiden bamboo and trees. They should product a lossprice such fieldgrade barrel and stock (loss costs finish) that owner can customized later. Chamber should facilitated to 45 longcolt and 410 shotshell in one rifle barrel.
What's the effective range on that model?
Do you ship out of Australia can you ship one pls? Have a good one..357 or .44 Magnum?How come they do not make them for .22lr/.22WMR or .22Hornet .500S&W?How much is this rifle down under?
On my birthday in december im getting in 357mag ive got a question what game can it take down with that caliber
a rabbit? Squirrel?
thinking off buying a 243 i like a simple good rifle , can only fit one deer on my shoulders any way, how crisp is the trigger??
I have the .243 and the trigger is decent
tacticalsmokepole beautiful rifle well worth the money.
I hear the trigger sucks. Well that can be modified by someone knowledgeable. Maybe some fine honing will do the trick.
Interested but from other reviews the triggers are super hard to pull . Up to 9 lbs. That is ridiculous don't want to have to do a trigger job on a new rifle. Wish they could put good triggers like Smith and Wesson pistols.
I fix my trigger very easy by cutting the spring, a few rings off.. now it's about 2 lb..
This gun is solid,amazing trigger..don’t second guess it..
We think so too! - JK
