I converted my Uberti Henry reproduction from a .45 Colt into a ".45 Cowboy Special", which I essentially load to the .44 Henry specs. Same capacity now too. :D

Be nice if Starline offered .44 Henry Centerfire brass (.875 long). They do make .44 Russian, which is .97 inches long and ought to make a fine levergun cartridge.
