Man! Henry is stepping up with the new products line this year. First the single shots and now this. Not a bad looking rifle at all.

I saw that video last year and I thought the rifle was interesting...but I would probably buy the BLR, before the Henry.

NoAngel: Even more good news for Henry levers in 2017. 327 federal mag. I hope to have the money in hand when I see the first one for sale around here. Lovin the looks of the 308 also and I'm deep in 308 brass and tooling. Gp

The Long Ranger has been on my short list since they announced it. Between that and a half dozen other new guns, the list is just getting longer and I can't keep up.

How 'bout a .223 lever action that uses AR mags?

They don't use AR mags but Henry is building 223 levers, 243 also. Gp

T035,
I believe an extended magazine would not allow the lever to be thrown forward fully. Over 30 years ago I tried this with a BLR. Wish it would have worked.

Wish they were not in NY.

GunBlast.com has a much better review with accuracy testing. Make one in 338 Federal and I'll likely dislocate my shoulder reaching for my wallet at warp speed!

My local gun shop has a standing order with at least 2 different distributors for one of the Big Boy Steel's in .327Fed/mag.
If I don't acquire one of the first run, it won't be for lack of effort.

What is Henry trying to do, just make us spend money on stuff we don't need??
I have a 300 savage and the 308 mx in leversm so that base is covered, but sheesh, I may have to have a Henry now. Thet 223 now is a different story, I don''t have that covered in a lever, so maybe I NEED one. lol

Good morning
I am bugging Mr. Imperato for some Supermag lever rifles. I like my 336 conversions but then I could suffer with the decision "which one" or do some side by side tests.

Nice looking rifle! Thumbs up for Henry! Whatever they build, there will be those who want something different but I congratulate them on what they are doing - it's nice to see an American company doing well and coming out with new products.
