Rather than start another thread i'll join this one in praise of DougGuy's work. I sent my 32 cylinder out on 3/25 and received it 4/1. He fixed my very undersized sp101 in 32h&r. The cost for his...

I too frequent the S&S sub forum and have sold and purchased items many times and have had no troubles.

Not 1923 but 2023.

Hi OP,yes the # is the manf. year. The oldest i've come across is 1962.(45acp)

Thank you for posting such a well written and easy to understand explanation. I have a Taurus with similar issues.

Both were groundbreaking in their respective platforms.

I have the 45 and 50 maxi ball molds and when i tried them under 70-80 grs. of 3f my shots were pie plate sized. I did some reading on this forum and found that a wad or card would help so i tried it...

Henry makes a lever action in 327/32 H&R,mine shoots 32 long as well.

LOL
That was well put,i agree.

I put a Skinner peep sight on my Henry and it greatly improved my groups. I spoke to the folks at Skinner and they got me the proper height front sight as well. I'd highly recommend their sights. I'm...

That's a clever idea on the screw heads. I think i will try that as i have nothing to lose.
Thank you to all who replied,appreciated.

That's a good point since the new screws are blued and the gun has no bluing on the receiver. It's just irksome to see those buggered screws on an otherwise fine rifle.

Thanks guys,i appreciate the advice. I'll plan on a field strip of this old girl.

Hello,i bought a 1905 winchester 94 with two buggered screws. I was able to find replacement screws. The screws are Loading gate(spring cover) screw and the Carrier screw on the opposite side. Can i...

My last was a used Pietta 1851 Navy. Turns out it's a very nice shooter,the previous owner appears to have worked on it and took very good care of it.

I bought one several years ago,well made and an easy transaction.

I own two Henry lever actions,one in 327/32H&R and the other is a 30/30. Both have nice walnut furniture,a slick action and shoot great. I'd buy another Henry.

I have one of these and have been very pleased. https://www.polishcappers.com/en/

My wife gave me the green light to get a Freedom Arms 97 in 2020. I bought a premier grade 327 and have been very happy.

I have a 1905 vintage 1894 that i'm working up cast loads for.
I paid $650.00 for it,a bit much perhaps but i felt i wouldn't find another one in as good.

Seeker,i would be interested in your Skinner sight if you decide to sell. I just bought a steel Henry in 30-30.

The Lee 160 gr. is a round nose design as well. I wanted a 170 gr. but back in January there were none to be found.

That's two things i hadn't considered. I have some lead flashing so i'm going to make my first reloads for the Henry this weekend. Thanks to everyone who's responded. I appreciate the help.

Hello sir,i like to hunt woods rather than fields so my shots will be in the 50-75 yard range at best. 32-40 level should get the job done. I was concerned that if i don't get enough velocity i'll...

Hello folks,i have a hunting related question and would appreciate your collective advice. I recently bought a Henry steel 30-30 and a Winchester 1894 circa 1905 also 30-30. I plan on shooting...
