New to me: Henry H001

Post by BoneDigger »

After looking for a long time for a used 39A, I decided to fork out the money for a Henry H001 from Wally World. I picked up a Nikon Prostaff 4x32 fixed power rimfire scope as well and will be putting it all together tomorrow (Christmas). This was my present to myself (along with a Smith 686, but that's another story...).

Is there anything I need to know about these little rifles before taking it out for a spin?

Todd,

Yep, have fun! :D :lol: :!:

Well, mine is over 5 years old, and I still love it. I am aproaching 10,000 rounds through mine, and it is still the most wonderful, reliable, trouble-free, easiest to use rifle that I have ever owned. It always shoots to exactly where I am pointing it. You see, that is the problem: ME! If I were a better shot, then I could really tell you about the rifle's accuracy. :evil: :evil: :cry: :shock: :o

Enjoy your new Henry!

Shawn

My first rimfire levergun was an Erma the German made forerunner of the Henry H001.
Probably one of the best .22s I have owned for reliability and pure fun!
I shot more Crows with that gun than any other I have had.
I'd try it without the scope first, even with the basic sights mine sure put the lead in the right place! :wink:

Congrats! You need to know that it will be hard to stop shooting it, so leave some extra time :)

Merry Christmas!

You won't get any grief from anyone here that has owned or shot one.

I've got a 9422, 39a, and a Henry H001 and take the Henry 80% of the time out looking for squirrels. It's just as accurate and definitely smoother than the others.

You'll be hard pressed to find a better bang for your buck.
