I was thinking that myself i’ve got a 22 semi automatic ross I gave $125 for now. That is budget. and I’ve also got the henry 22 LR lever action I give $370 and if it came down to either one, they both shoot great they’re both accurate, but when it comes to quality Henry all day every day.
@@jimmieburleigh9549 when you want to live out your yeehaw dreams, but can’t afford an1860 Henry or a Winchester 73, you’ll take anything you can get. Later on, I might have enough money to decide between the two (and it’ll be a REALLY tough decision to make) but lever guns themselves just _feel_ historic
Round barrel is obviously faster due to the aerodynamic coefficient properties that Henry implemented. To make up for the Hexagonal barrel, they added an extra round, longer range due to longer barrel, and higher muzzle velocity. Yeah, that's it, that's what I'm going with.
How about the octagon barrel pump. Best I ever shot open site is my Rem Model 12C. Perfect sites. One inch square at 50 yards is not a challenge. Have a Weatherby semiauto w scope the girls shoot empty 22 hulls off posts at 25 meters. First time they outshot all the boy cousins, the moaning was unbelievable. Chuckle!!! Todays biggest problem with .22's is the sights, pistols especially. The sight is ten times bigger than the target it would hit if the beads and rear sites were finer. How do you shoot a candle out w your pistol if your front bead would cover ten of them wide? Even the old super accurate Browning Nomad has a too wide front blade. I used to kill blue grouse w my single six, then an old guy handed me an old H & R and says kill that rabbit for me at 20 yards. I thought impossible till I lined up the sites. Fereaking magic!!!! One dead bunny first shot. Most people have no idea how accurate a .22 really is with the right sites. Sill looking for an old time 9 shot .22 shooter. Come on Henry take the challenge. I have one Henry already, the Eagle Scout Rifle, stunningly beautiful. Make me buy more!
Got my H001 because: it's a Henry; it's MiA; it's a lever gun. We keep rabbits and chickens, so my primary application for my Henry is for dispatching varmints (racoons, possums and squirrels). I love that it cycles S/L/LR, since I like to use quiet .22 ammo, so I have shorts, longs and CCI Quiet-22 as well as bulk standard velocity .22LR ammo, Mini-Mags, etc.
The octagon barrel being heavier and longer also delivers a quieter report . The Golden boy and Silver boy is awesome in design if you prefer a bit more character. Thanks Henry.
I have various rifles, brands, cal., etc., and i have to say that Henry is tops when it comes to quality. My .22 lever action Henry is what i always grab for when planning to go out plinking in the woods. It is so solid feeling, very accurate, and to be honest, Henry rifles are the best on the market.
Great video. I have the H001T model and have put thousands of rounds through it. It doesn’t like Winchester ammo, but blows right through CCI, Federal, and Aguila. I added a Skinner peep sight and it has greatly improved my accuracy.
What do you shoot with it (targets, varmints etc.)? Also what kind of CCI ammo do you use and some thoughts about them (different CCI offerings) if you don't mind?
Just awesome as usual for a Henry. I have six of various types including the 1st generation military theme. I prefer that version because of the insignias. The 357/38 lever action is a ball to shoot, as the others are.
This is absolute proof of one thing. Henry's success is absolutely selfevident. these 2 goof balls, including one that works for the company, can get out here and completely Jack around , and , have us watch the "entire thing" Simply, Because we love henry so much.
I wanted a Henry 1T bad but fell short. I was stoaked to get a deal on a 01 for 40% off but thought about that 1T. This video was great & I look forward keeping my 01 for a long time.
Just purchased the H001 and love it. Accurate right out the box shooting off my shoulder. Indoor range was "only" 25 yards but the groupings were good on 8 and 6 inch targets. 10 and 15 yards with bottle silhouettes where on point. Enjoy this "cowboy gun" very much.
These are great rifles...either one would be a great purchase. Beautifully made from quality materials by a great company...Henry Repeating Arms is a good bet for your money!
I have two of these rifles , a golden boy and a black boy, i bought my mate a silver boy and she bought her niece a golden boy.... all of these rifles are superb and we use them all often.... thanks Henry and 22 plinkster.....you rock!!!!
Hi Dan &22Henry Plinkster, I have a Henry H0001 with octagon barrel. Not the fancier Frontier model. But, that’s fine. Just having the rifle that I do, as it is, is pllllenty fancy for me. To my eye, the external beauty of “MY Henry” lies in its first impression-first glance. In its super well-made best American, walnut stock. The octagon barrel is a nod and hat tip to Henry’s very rich history. The barrel, and the lever action, they proudly say American. The fit and finish are supreme. The attention to detail, mated with the pride of Henry’s American craftsmen as they build each Henry rifle to its final magnificent creation. That’s just the outside. Without going into a tear-down to talk about the inner mechanics, just trust me. They are accurate rifles! The lever action feels solid and substantial as it cycles its way through the cartridge pickup, battery, firing, and ejection of the spent cartridge. These All-American, Hand-Made rifles are how America used to produce THE most firearms in the world. When I hold MY Henry, I’m very pleased knowing these experts in their fields of expertise are STILL doing it the right way. The American Way! (Wow! I just wrote out the 1st Draft of what could be your next commercial. LOL❤️🇺🇸❤️)
We need Henry. Henry needs you. Get a Henry .22 near you!! The people need 22 hornet, and Henry wont ignore it!! Store it. Hunt boar with it. But theres more!! Check your local store!!!
Henry has a nice thing going on until Sept. 19, where you can create your own personal serial code for your rifle (12 characters max) I ordered one through Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore, and it's supposed to be delivered sometime in early December, or before Christmas. It's being sold as the H001 "Heirloom Rifle".....$319 plus free shipping. Just can't wait until it arrives. I have a lot of respect for the Henry brand and what they represent. Anthony Imperato is a true patriot that's committed to a Made in USA philosophy.
Now that would be my pride and joy if they made one in 20,16, or 12 guage, would be devistatiingly powerful enough for anything I come across in my area and fun
I have both of these guns but the HOO1 worked fine the first year, but the next fall it started jamming, now it jam's 99% of the time, doesn't matter what kind of ammo used. And yes the gun has been thoroughly cleaned.
I find the octagon barrel on the .357 Big Boy to be quite heavy for this 76 year old with week lungs. But it's a beautiful collector's item. So I bought two more, one in .44 Mag and one in .45 Long Colt. I'm sure their value will continue to climb.
Love me some Henry, have one in just about every caliber, thought I was good, know I gotta start all over with the side gates, got the 30-30 (love it), keep them coming, really want the 357 & 44 mag’s in all weather, side gates. But most of all the 45-70, pleeease. ❤️👍🏼🤠
I have a 22 Magnum Golden Boy, with a great scope. I can shoot Far, Cheap, and Quickly, with a deadly Punch. Ammunition for this is so cheep, it’s hard to stop shooting. Take my advice from a retired Marine GySgt. If you like to shoot a lot. You will be glad you bought a Henry.
The Henry standard 22 lever action rifle retails about $350 I've seen them as low as 295 depending on where you buy them it's a great little rifle I mean who wants to spend $8,900 for 22 rifle give me a break 💯👍🇺🇸
Saw one for $316 at my Walmart yesterday. The wife is mad but I don't think I can resist. If it's still there today when I go back its mine👍🏻😂 It was there and I bought it. Now of course I'm looking at some cheap ar-15s online 👌🏼
Just got a Henry 22 WinMag, put 100 rounds through it the day I got it, can't wait to shoot it again this week. so much fun and the 22 Mag has some 'punch'...
My first Henry was the H001. I liked it so much that I ordered the fancy grained walnut stock. The forearm didn't fit, but I hesitated to ruin it with a chisel. I then bought a H001T and the fancy stock and forearm fit perfectly. Looking at Henry's website I noticed the Varmint Express .17 HMR rifle, with a round barrel. It had a high comb stock for a scope and both the buttstock and the forearm were checkered. I ordered those parts and they fit my H001 perfectly, with no fitting required. I put a 3-9 scope on the H001, but thought the octagon barrelled H001 T deserved an older looking scope. I happened to have an old Bushnell Banner 4X scope with a 3/4" tube and a set of Redfield 3/4" rings for the dovetail grove. I am so happy with those two combinations and the fact that Henry had the stocks available.
I like how the chiappa la322 has a crown that sits an inch inside the barrel so it cant be messed up. Its a cool little feature these henrys should take part in.
I own 3 Henry rifles, a Big Boy .357, a .45-70 lever action and a .243 Single Shot. I just can''t cheat on my Glenfield Model 25 in .22LR that I received as a Christmas gift in 1973. It is still a wonderful rifle.
I have 6 lever action Henry rifles, and they are all great. I also have a Marlin/Glenfield 60 and a Marlin 25. Both Marlins have Boyd's stocks on them. The thing I dislike most about the M 25 is the 7 round magazine sticks out the bottom. My Winchester 69A is a much better better looking bolt action with it's flush mount 5 round magazine. I also have a 10 round magazine for my 69A, but prefer not to use it.
I own 6 lever action Henry rifles, plus an AR-7. The only complaint I have is with the Golden Boy. I do not like the Cantilever scope base. If they offered a simple screw on base (like the 10/22 has) it would have been much better, and the scope could be mounted lower. Since I have both the engraved receiver cover and the standard one, I think I will attempt drilling and tapping the standard one first. There are plenty of screw on bases available for both the 3/8" dovetail and the Weaver rings.
Before I watch the video, I would like to comment that in this very moment I've been looking at a Henry lever action. Wouldn't look at anything else. I was debating between these very two rifles. Perfect timeing. Thank you. Ps leaning towards octagon only for the barrel length. Feels more like an adult rifle
Hopefully, you at least got a little bit of insight out of this video towards the end. You really can't go wrong with either, but there's no doubt that the Frontier is an upgrade.
Fun video to watch! I opted for the 20" octagon barrel a few years ago for cheap plinking. It is a blast to shoot and very accurate. Quality fit and finish is outstanding! I hope to spend range time w/ my grandson with it to get him engaged, but so far he is much more interested in fishing with me! I'll gladly enjoy time with him with either as both are Quality bonding time to cherish :) ! I sure do hope to spend time with him and this fine starter rifle & pass it along to him for memories. Thanks to Henry for making Made in USA starter rifles for many uses!
The Henry classic carbine starts at $378, the Frontier at $512 and while both are exceptionally well made, they can hardly be called budget friendly guns. However you could buy from Ruger a 10/22 carbine with Weaver 3x9 scope/rings, spare magazine and gun case for $399. Just $21 more than the Henry classic alone. That's budget value with a vengeance.
It depends on where you live. I used to have a 10/22 "Sporter" model with the walnut checkered stock. Then one day CA proposed legislation that would have declared all semiautos with detachable magazines to be "assault weapons." Feeling that I had to get rid of it while I could, I took it to a dealer and traded it in for a Henry H001. The next thing that happened was the bill was modified to exempt rimfires, then the governor vetoed the whole bill. Anyway I ended up with a Henry, and have purchased several more since then. Most of the 10/22's that I own now are made from 80% receivers. Another thing about the 10/22 is since it is the most popular and most customized .22 available, you can go broke with all the aftermarket parts that are available. I would say that the Henry is better if you want to shoot it. The 80% 10/22 is great if you like to play with your lathe, mill, drill press, etc. Some folks prefer one activity, others prefer the other hobby.
I have the 'T' version, with the bigger 'loop' handle and a Marbles tang sight. I also did a case hardened look to the receiver. Oh my....] what a beautiful rifle! $1k would not take it off my hands.
I personally like the Frontier Carbine Evil Roy edition. Strikes a balance between both of these models with a slightly shorter octagonal barrel and I love the large loop on it.
The lever action Henry's require the buttstock, receiver cover and bolt to be removed to be able to clean the bore from the chamber end. The Marlin 60 can ONLY be cleaned with a bore snake. After taking apart both my Marlin 60 and my Ruger 10/22 I purchased a jig to drill a hole in the back of the receiver of the 10/22 for a cleaning rod, but that does not appear to be possible for the M60. Bottom line: The Henry is the best.
Just ordered the frontier addition. Found one for sale, and with the current climate I couldn’t buy it fast enough. Can’t wait to plink with my son and with such a classic rifle.
I really want a long barrel Henry .22 Frontier. I’d probably sell all my other .22’s other than a cheap savage semi auto. Well, I COULD sell the rest. 😂
Fun video. Was looking for a lever action rifle been looking at another brand for a while than stumble into a Henry h0001 at basspro and just picked it up today.
I have the Iver Johnson lever action made in Germany that is now the H001. I would love to know how and when Henry got the tooling and the history of this design.
I have a Henry octagon lever and a rossi pump my rossi always jams on the 2nd to last bullet and I have to take it apart but my papa gave me it so it's still my favorite 22lr even tho my Henry shoots better.
If your Marlin was made within the past few years, it will have a useless crossbolt "safety" on it. That is the main reason that I now prefer the Henry to the Marlin. My Marlin 336 SC is so old, it is chambered for .219 Zipper. So you know that it doesn't have that useless piece of nonsense on it.
I've never used Henry and budget in the same sentence and this video definitely didn't change that still a good video still good guns but definitely not on a budget or at least not my budget 😂
I would have just 1 person test each different rifle for time for a more conclusive loading and rapid fire time test. Love both rifles 👍 wish they were mine 😃
I have both the octagonal and the H001 and they are exactly the same accuracy . Come on Guys, I had a good laugh throughout your video. But I want to see the .22 plinkster shoot that Henry upside down, not with the mirror trick !.
I own a 1946 issue of a Marlin 39A in mint condition. We all know the fantastic reputation those guns have. How do these Henrys stack up against a Legend?
I would love Henry made one that was threaded and take down that's the dream gun or make a reproduction of the gallery guns of the past( that take down) and thread it
If you don't mind autoloaders, check out the Henry AR-7. It comes with two 8 round magazines and there is room in the stock for a third one. It comes with a 3/8" dovetail grove on the top of the receiver, but there is no place in the stock to store the scope. If you are OK with just the peep sight that comes on it, it will easily store in a backpack.
I wouldn't call it budget...just top quality at a fair price!
Oh its budget my guy just because it shoots reliable most of the time doesn't mean much if the internals, receiver, and barrel bands arent steel
@@Holy_Discourses it's not a budget, it's $2,000
@@gregington. I bought mine for $250 but you’re probably joking.
I was thinking that myself i’ve got a 22 semi automatic ross I gave $125 for now. That is budget. and I’ve also got the henry 22 LR lever action I give $370 and if it came down to either one, they both shoot great they’re both accurate, but when it comes to quality Henry all day every day.
Just treated myself to a frontier edition after graduating college this year. As a history major I love it!
Congratulations!
I just got myself one too!!
Not modeled after anything from history and company to company nothing to do with the Henry named rifles of the past.
Just a dope affordable lever action rifle. 😎

I have 6 lever action Henry rifles, and they are all great. I also have a Marlin/Glenfield 60 and a Marlin 25. Both Marlins have Boyd's stocks on them. The thing I dislike most about the M 25 is the 7 round magazine sticks out the bottom. My Winchester 69A is a much better better looking bolt action with it's flush mount 5 round magazine. I also have a 10 round magazine for my 69A, but prefer not to use it.
This is one of the most fun video's I have seen in a while... oh and I love my Golden Boy!!
Glad you enjoyed it, Roscoe! We had fun making this one.
I own 6 lever action Henry rifles, plus an AR-7. The only complaint I have is with the Golden Boy. I do not like the Cantilever scope base. If they offered a simple screw on base (like the 10/22 has) it would have been much better, and the scope could be mounted lower. Since I have both the engraved receiver cover and the standard one, I think I will attempt drilling and tapping the standard one first. There are plenty of screw on bases available for both the 3/8" dovetail and the Weaver rings.
Brilliant. Got the shorty on the way.
Love the Henrys.
Great rifles!
I need to add the Evil Roy model to my arsenal.
Before I watch the video, I would like to comment that in this very moment I've been looking at a Henry lever action. Wouldn't look at anything else. I was debating between these very two rifles. Perfect timeing. Thank you. Ps leaning towards octagon only for the barrel length. Feels more like an adult rifle
Hopefully, you at least got a little bit of insight out of this video towards the end. You really can't go wrong with either, but there's no doubt that the Frontier is an upgrade.
Fun video to watch! I opted for the 20" octagon barrel a few years ago for cheap plinking. It is a blast to shoot and very accurate. Quality fit and finish is outstanding! I hope to spend range time w/ my grandson with it to get him engaged, but so far he is much more interested in fishing with me! I'll gladly enjoy time with him with either as both are Quality bonding time to cherish :) ! I sure do hope to spend time with him and this fine starter rifle & pass it along to him for memories. Thanks to Henry for making Made in USA starter rifles for many uses!
The Henry classic carbine starts at $378, the Frontier at $512 and while both are exceptionally well made, they can hardly be called budget friendly guns. However you could buy from Ruger a 10/22 carbine with Weaver 3x9 scope/rings, spare magazine and gun case for $399. Just $21 more than the Henry classic alone. That's budget value with a vengeance.
It depends on where you live. I used to have a 10/22 "Sporter" model with the walnut checkered stock. Then one day CA proposed legislation that would have declared all semiautos with detachable magazines to be "assault weapons." Feeling that I had to get rid of it while I could, I took it to a dealer and traded it in for a Henry H001. The next thing that happened was the bill was modified to exempt rimfires, then the governor vetoed the whole bill. Anyway I ended up with a Henry, and have purchased several more since then. Most of the 10/22's that I own now are made from 80% receivers. Another thing about the 10/22 is since it is the most popular and most customized .22 available, you can go broke with all the aftermarket parts that are available.
I would say that the Henry is better if you want to shoot it. The 80% 10/22 is great if you like to play with your lathe, mill, drill press, etc. Some folks prefer one activity, others prefer the other hobby.
I bought a golden boy today for $450
It's just My Opinion, but a levergun should have a hex barrel.
I have the 'T' version, with the bigger 'loop' handle and a Marbles tang sight. I also did a case hardened look to the receiver. Oh my....] what a beautiful rifle! $1k would not take it off my hands.
I got the large loop carbine. My favorite gun!! Barrel is a bit shorter than the normal sized 22
Very smart to pick the Plinkster as a spokesman.
I personally like the Frontier Carbine Evil Roy edition. Strikes a balance between both of these models with a slightly shorter octagonal barrel and I love the large loop on it.
I love the Henry .22...and the Marlin 60 as well.
The lever action Henry's require the buttstock, receiver cover and bolt to be removed to be able to clean the bore from the chamber end. The Marlin 60 can ONLY be cleaned with a bore snake. After taking apart both my Marlin 60 and my Ruger 10/22 I purchased a jig to drill a hole in the back of the receiver of the 10/22 for a cleaning rod, but that does not appear to be possible for the M60. Bottom line: The Henry is the best.
I remember my first henry repeater. I was 18 years old and my mom's boyfriend bought me a Golden Boy.
Heckova Mom friend!
Just ordered the frontier addition. Found one for sale, and with the current climate I couldn’t buy it fast enough. Can’t wait to plink with my son and with such a classic rifle.
I bought a speed loader from Henry....also have the octogon barrel. Very nice rifle !!!
4:40 i think we should all take a minute and admire that nice ejection pattern 🇺🇸
As ussual, .22 plinker is a show-off, thats why he gets those free Henry Rifles...
Thats also why the corporate guy kept trying to fling a casing into his ass crack
Henry Golden Boy is my main gun.
I would love to purchase an H001, but Henry guns are almost nowhere to be found. Why can’t we order directly from HenryUSA?
Great video...incredible rifles! Love my Henry Golden Boy.
I really want a long barrel Henry .22 Frontier. I’d probably sell all my other .22’s other than a cheap savage semi auto.
Well, I COULD sell the rest. 😂
To be fair test the same person should do both rifles as one person can load faster than another and shoot better.
I have the round barrel one and I love it. Very impressive firearm
I love my 2 Henry’s they are great and also cause made in Wisconsin
Fun video. Was looking for a lever action rifle been looking at another brand for a while than stumble into a Henry h0001 at basspro and just picked it up today.
I want the pump action back
I love Henry , but i would love a batle betwin the Browning , the Chiappa and the Henry ....
I have the Iver Johnson lever action made in Germany that is now the H001. I would love to know how and when Henry got the tooling and the history of this design.
Scientifical as heck.
Scientifical as all outdoors! I think I gained IQ points just watching this!😆
Great guns guys, but my Henry pump action octagon in .22 magnum is tough to beat. Thanks for all the great firearms, be well guys.
I have a Henry octagon lever and a rossi pump my rossi always jams on the 2nd to last bullet and I have to take it apart but my papa gave me it so it's still my favorite 22lr even tho my Henry shoots better.
Who the hell spends $2,000 on a .22? More money than sense sounds like.
You'd be surprised.
I'm 20 live in Australia and I've spent probly 4k just on .22 in my short life.
Samuel Fitzsimmons on everything or just ammo?
@@johnreed8844 just .22 rifles man, not sure how much I have spent in ammo
Samuel Fitzsimmons i hear you there. Random question, is .22 expensive down under?
Had the youth version awhile ago. Buying the octagonal barrel version soon. It will fit in nice with my Marlin leverguns.
If your Marlin was made within the past few years, it will have a useless crossbolt "safety" on it. That is the main reason that I now prefer the Henry to the Marlin. My Marlin 336 SC is so old, it is chambered for .219 Zipper. So you know that it doesn't have that useless piece of nonsense on it.
My h001 Tlb is a tack driver, it’s well balanced and slick as polished glass on Ice, spend the extra money and get a Henry!
I've never used Henry and budget in the same sentence and this video definitely didn't change that still a good video still good guns but definitely not on a budget or at least not my budget 😂
if you can't spend $400 for a rifle then maybe guns aren't a priority for you.
You are funny. Specially on the loading part
I would have just 1 person test each different rifle for time for a more conclusive loading and rapid fire time test. Love both rifles 👍 wish they were mine 😃
I like many back in the day had a Marlin 60 today its a Marlin .22LR XT bolt. I'm talking 75 yard bottle caps. It was $ 200.00 dollars.
I have both the octagonal and the H001 and they are exactly the same accuracy . Come on Guys, I had a good laugh throughout your video. But I want to see the .22 plinkster shoot that Henry upside down, not with the mirror trick !.
That should be for the hill forks like
The Hatfield and McCoys feud
You need a speed loader. Henry used to sell them . Not sure if they still do.
I want to buy a Frontier suppressor-ready .22LR.
I own a 1946 issue of a Marlin 39A in mint condition. We all know the fantastic reputation those guns have. How do these Henrys stack up against a Legend?
You call em budget? just got the H001 here in Australia $779au great little .22 but not budget, expensive!!! Love you channel...
Try living in a better country, that'll fix your problem
You get what you pay for. The shipping charges to Australia must be terrible. Maybe worse than to Hawaii.
I would love Henry made one that was threaded and take down that's the dream gun or make a reproduction of the gallery guns of the past( that take down) and thread it
If you don't mind autoloaders, check out the Henry AR-7. It comes with two 8 round magazines and there is room in the stock for a third one. It comes with a 3/8" dovetail grove on the top of the receiver, but there is no place in the stock to store the scope. If you are OK with just the peep sight that comes on it, it will easily store in a backpack.
