    Henry has added the twist rates for these rifles to their website. The 44 mag is listed as 1:20.

    They added the twist rates for their other rifles also. I'd bet they got tired of all the calls and e-mails asking for this information.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    Handled a Henry lever .41 today. Was disappointed.
    I hope they make a .41 single shooter instead some day.

    Why the disappointment?

    How's your accuracy with it? I ordered a 20ga-9mm adaptor for my Ithaca, curious what to expect from it.

    I sent them a question about the groove diameter on the 44 Mag. They answered that it would be .429. Also, I could be mistaken, but I seem to remember that the early descriptions had the rear sight as a semi-buckhorn. Now it's listed as a folding leaf.

    Can't explain why but I am really digging one of these in .44 Magnum. I picked up about 70 pieces of brass at the range awhile back. Guess I better buy me a Henry, dies, and a mold to with it right? Will ask about it at the fun store tomorrow.
    Currently casting and loading: .32 Auto, .380 Auto, .38 Special, 9X19, .357 Magnum, .257 Roberts, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30 WCF, .308 WCF, .45-70.

    I am thinking of a .45-70

    but...twist is 1:20 and they recommend it for 100yd?

    I suppose that will limit the bullets to 450 or 500gn?

    This is what Henry e-mailed me today:

    Thanks very much for your interest in the new single shot firearms. These are slated to start shipping to distributors right at the end of this month. From there it might take another week or two for them to start hitting dealers. I haven't heard of any delays yet for these, so hopefully everything is on track to ship on time.

    I would strongly consider a .44 mag single shot from Henry. But I already have a .444 Marlin Handi rifle that does all a .44 mag will and then some with more room for powder.

    I also have handi rifles in .223 and .357, so I am waiting to see what other calibers they come out with.

    Now I want them to chamber it in 50-70 Govt. might as well it's taking so long.
    And Savage has taken up the Topper shotgun Stevens branded. Great news for practical folks.
    Best, Thomas.

    I have an email from Mr Anthony Imperato assuring me that when they Big Boys in steel (chambered for .327 Federal magnum) begin to ship, mine will be drop-shipped to my local FFL.
    This email is dated February 2017.
    Through contacts with customer service, I have been told that the new .327's will ship in March 2017, and then April 2017, and then late May 2017.

    I called customer service again on May 31st 2017.
    I was told during this call that there had been "...a production issue, but they are back on track, and should be shipping in the next couple of weeks.

    I called customer service again this morning.
    I was told that the .327's are expected to begin shipping this month, in June 2017.
    I informed the customer service rep that "I had heard this story before, in March, then April, and again in May..."

    "I'm sorry. This is all the information we have. We were told they should begin shipping in June 2017"

    I'm no longer holding my breath...
