Lawd have mercy she is purdy

Post by wvfarrier »

Henry sure makes a purdy rifle. And she is a shooter!!

Used 185 grain fmj with 9.2 grains of Unique at 65 yards and ended up with the smallest group of 1.04" and largest of 1.68". Off a sandbag with open sights.

And good shooting on your part.

Did you state the caliber?

I have a Henry Big Boy Steel in .38spl/.357mag (16" bbl and big loop). This is the best levergun in .357 mag that I have ever shot. Shoots better than my "gone-to-me" Marlin 1894C. You made a good choice...loading tube and all... :)
