That design rifle was originally made by Erma werk from Germany in the 60’s into the 80’s. When Erma went out of business the family that currently owns the Henry company bought the design rights and started producing the h001 as their first product. I have an old 22 magnum that was distributed by Iver Johnson and made back in the early 70’s
Thanks for setting us up with an airgun version. 25 yards in an airgun is pretty equivalent to 50 yards in a rimfire. Except for the high dollar custom PCP’s they need to do 50 in an open class!
@@WalnutandSteel I am not sure with PCP. The Avenger is sub 5. Airacunda is sub 5. Gauntlet is sub 5. All will take out a 25 yards target like this pretty readily. Plus there is the cost of a fill source with PCP. So it is not really inexpensive to me.
I love Henry Rifles. I think you might be on to something trying blazer . Some of those classic rifle designs do better with bulk blazer or other higher velocity ammos . I’m not sure why . But I got an old Browning SA 22 that likes the cheap stuff better . Pellet rifles have come a long way . My dad bought me one and also a steel trap . I used to shoot it in my basement for practice . 58 years later, I still have it 😊. It’s a lot less expensive for ammo and just as much fun imo … think about it Billy 👍🏼
Cool Eli, I just posted a video that will fit this new class just fine. It was with my Marlin Model 60 squirrel rifle. I had really worked on this one last year to get it tuned in by testing all kinds of HP hunting ammo. So I wanted to see how it did with this challenge. I have a Barska 3-9 x32 scope on it and yes, it is hard to see the targets at 50 yards, but I managed. I'll send you a link to the video and picture of the target. Thanks for the video as always.
Really enjoy your content. It’d be really cool if you put a very high dollar scope on that Henry find out what Ammo likes. And see what kind of groups you can get with it being interesting. Also, have you done a video on the model 60 Glenfield or Marlin rifle? Would love to see that I have one and it is a tac driver.
Your lack of clarity is most likely from the fixed parallax of your centerfire scope. It is probably set for over 100 yards. You need a rimfire scope because the fixed parallax rimfire scopes are set for around 60 yards.
Yes, I was wondering the same thing if that was a centerfire scope. Very likely to be the cause of the blurry targets, and doesn't necessarily help with accuracy either.
Love your videos, I'm a 22 guy with 5 rifles and 2 pistols most accurate would be my1930s Marlin model 80 very early model with a Ballard rifled barrel with iron sights next up would be my much newer model 80 micro groove barrel with a bi pod and a 3x9x40 scope, then a Marlin model 60 micro groove barrel with a bi pod and a 3x9x40 scope then would be my 10/22 also with a bi pod and a 3x9x40 scope I also have a Remmington nylon 76 lever action. My ammo of choice is CCI Mini mags, ar, or standard velocity second choice would be Aqulia super extra
Thanks for the vid, partner! Never seen a Henry rimfire shoot particularly tight. I own a Frontier model H001 (octagonal barrel), but despite trying over twenty different types of ammo in mine, I usually see 1" to 1 1/2" groups at 50 yards (benched, open sights) with ammo is likes. I've not tried match ammo, but mine likes Aguila 38 grain subsonic hollowpoints best of what I HAVE tried, and they work great for pest control.
Yes they weren't mean to be bench rifles. As a matter of fact some says the accuracy on a lever is screwed up from placing the front stock on a rest. Many are adamant that it should only contact the body.
@@Dayattherange Agree about them not being a bench gun. I've tried resting them on the receiver, the forend, and the magazine tube, and haven't seen any dramatic difference in group size. They're lightweight, fast handling, and fun, so I just enjoy them for what they are. If I want little groups, I have an old CZ452 that does the trick!👍
I dumped all my “expensive” .22lrs my 1913 supermatch precise, my Tikka T1X hunter, and just stuck with my 10/22 Target that I picked up for £150. I use it to compete in everything apart from prone. I stuck a Hunter x22 stock on it but everything else is amazon Chineseium, scope, bipod, pic rails, and it does just fine.
I've read some claims of less than 1/2" groups with the Henrys at 50 yards on Rimfirecentral. Watching you struggle with a 3X9 was very interesting and informative. I recently bought a H001T, A bore scope showed that the rifling at the muzzle end was rough. To really confirm if the rifle still shoots well, it looks like I would have to mount at least a 4x16 scope. Thanks for all your videos!
Obviously, it would take some time, but it would be interesting to see if you could find ammo that it truly liked and then do the challenge one more time.
I watched three or four UA-cam vids on this rifle, none by someone recognized as a shooter. A huge disappointment on purchasing it was the receiver. Now, it may be"just a cover", but for that kind of money it should be blued steel. That is my only complaint, I never thought of it as a target rifle. And I don't believe the way it is shooting is your fault. It performs as a plinker just fine.
Great video. I just bought a weaver base for a single shot break open Rossi. I installed a Gammo scope that came off of my air rifle. It's a fun little rifle to shoot, but the sights were just terrible, and the fiber optic replacements didn't fit. Putting 5 shots throught the same hole is fun, but what you just did is far more entertaining.👍
Dug out the Springfield 2020 and slapped a Vortex Crossfire 3x9 on that thing. Let’s have some fun, what’s the worst that can happen. Ammo will be a game time decision in the morning.
bought my kids the h001 and tryed all the store ammo sh,l,lr. eveyrtime we shot .22 shots (the 1st .22) they shot tightest goups. makes sence, for year rifle was desised
This was a lot of fun to watch. I’m a lever action guy like you are a revolver guy. Can’t wait to see you bring that out again with the CCI. You may have to make some class within the Airgun class as well.. Some of those things are big $$. I appreciate you trying to get the young ones in. You want to get kids fishing, let them catch that first bluegill. You want to get kids to shoot, give a .22 and watch out!! Cheers.
Center-X is good ammo. Last Saturday I shot a 500-32X with it on the IBS target at 50 yards but I was using a Suhl 150 and a 46X Weaver scope. I suspect that the Henry just isn't more than minute of tin can accurate... a large tin can at that. Still, the Sportsman Class is a good idea and should be interesting.
I'm guessing because we all use high power scopes in the 18× and up, for the Sportsmans class maybe it should be moved up to 25 yards while using 10× and less. Especially to get the beginners in the game! Those types of scopes rarely have an adjustable parallax, which makes it even more challenging!
Both my Henry Levers are Magnums. But I have a Browning BL-22 in LR. Ill have ta see what I have for a scope. Probably more then 10 but I could set to 10x.
Love that you've made an economy class competition...I think you'll find that some very cheap 22s, like voere, will perform very very well...I wonder if this competition will result in research that shows a trend towards the best cheap old 22s. Good on you . Australia
If the reticle is blurry that's why there is a focus ring on the eye bell. If you like the Henry you should try the Browning BL-22 there is no comparison.
Browning is what 3 times more expensive, I know they are nice have actually shot a few I believe even recorded for the channel but was owned by someone else. I want to do my best to help this kid find what's right for him.
I accept your Henry H001 challenge, Elijah 😮 I just so happen to have this exact rifle 😊 Super amazing firearm!!! It's worth every cent and then some! Let me see if I can do better with mine. It's on, brother! 😉 😜 Awesome video 👍 I hope Billy gets a Henry!
@Dayattherange haha 😄 I pulled that Frankin' Henry out, got some sights in, made a video, edited it, it's live! Submission sent my friend ... ball is in your court ... Thanks a ton Elijah 😊 🙏
@@Dayattherange Order one of the monte carlo stocks with the raised comb designed for optic use from Henry that comes stock on their "Magnum Express" 22 mag mode which comes with no iron sights and its a direct bolt on for the H001. Gives you a proper cheek well and priced reasonable from the mother ship at Henry!
@@Dayattherange LOL! You and Walnut & Steel are to blame for that 52E. When I did a search for 52's, guess who videos showed up. Thank you two for that.
Elijah my man! You’ve seen my videos and I also need readers. Adjust the diopter to focus your reticle without wearing them and you won’t need to look through your glasses to have perfect focus. Let the scope do the job of your glasses. 🤓 The scope is essentially a high powered monocular reader! ❤
I got the best score on the flies last year with my Winchester 9422 lever action with a Hawke 4-16x40AO scope mounted on it. I might have to try that with the iron sights on the CZ Lux to see how smattering I can do with it.
Man I just shot a video like this with a 10/22 last Sunday. Will post it tonight. The only problem is I used a mechanical front rest. Now I have to reshoot it 😂😂😂
They just jelly lmao. Hell I got fairly deep pockets an still can't swing them rifles you shoot lmao. 😂 probley help if I stoped my other 4 hobbies but that no fun. 😅
Fortunate or unfortunately I was taught life no matter who you are or what your worth is is only worth having ONE hobby. Because life has to much to offer to be stuck in play mode all the time, pops I hope I got that right. Also keep in mind 70% of the stuff on my channel do not belong to me and are owned by others.
Has to be shot from a bag or something other than a bi-pod or rest. The reason being you can take a factory rifle like a cz457 or Bergara B14r easily put a bi-pod on it and it would be sportmans class. This is about getting the kids, new shooters involved and those that aren't sure if they want to yet invest those funds in the hobby. Please consider the intent not so much the rule.
My Family has an "old" Stevens .35 cal lever with a 3X9 Redfield scope on it thats older than me (Im in my 60's) that is passed along for the new deer hunters coming up. That scope has never lost its zero or been shot out. I'd be willing to say your Vortex is crapolla, swtich it out, Ive watched you shoot...it aint the gun or you. Its the dumpster fire you have mounted on top.....just sayin

I agree. I would split springer and pcp is all. Pcp could be 50 yards for that matter.
@@drpietrzak depends on the pcp. Sub 500 bucks I would keep at 25.
