I have given up on the Henry and appreciate the thread comments. I have ordered a custom chambered Encore barrel from Mike Bellm in 357 Max. Since I already have an Encore, this makes sense. Costs...

I like retro... S&W Model 19, pinned and recessed, 4 inch, blued with rosewood target stocks. Can't wait to send some Keith cast boolits thru the pipe.
