So I went to the range this weekend. Best group I could get and repeat was a 255 grain JFP moving at 1810FPS to group five shots around 2 inches at 105 yards. That was with a scope and a rest. ...

I have been thinking about lever guns as suppressor hosts...I have only been able to find two stock rifles that are stock threaded from the factory, the Marlin 1894 CST and the Henry Frontier...

So a new sideloading Henry in 38-55 followed me home today. I have not shot it yet, but I can comment that this thing is built like a tank. The action is stiff to say the least. Hopefully...

This was the reply I got directly from Henry: We strongly recommend shooting factory loaded ammunition only to maintain the Henry Warranty.

So...I have recently become quite fond of the 38-55 round. I am really wanting a side eject lever gun in 38-55, but the 336cb and others are all really expensive. I saw one today and they were...

240 grain Hornady xtp , 1.60 col, 25.2 gr...
I've seen a couple at the LGS and shows. They are nice, but boy are they pricey.

I've got a Henry BBS .44 mag and 1.610 is about the limit. Cycles pretty much everything under or at that no problem.
Thanks, for this. I realize that H110 is not ideal for this load but I have about 20 pounds of it so I need to use it where I can.
I have tried searching the forum for a load using the 250 grain Magnus Cast Bullet No. 709 for .44 mag using H110 without a definitive answer. Similar loads around the 250 grain mark seem to...
