Sorry to say I don't remember the exact alloy, but it was lead, wheel weights and pewter mixed to about 11 BHN on the alloy calculator. Range was 75 yards.

Took a doe this weekend, shot her head on through the chest, boolit ended up under the hide on her left thigh. Lee 200 grain RNFP with IMR 3031 at 2100 fps, about 205 grains PC'd and checked,...

Congrats, we need pics!
I have a 357 X on order through my LGS.

That quote was in an email that Henry likely meant for their dealers, followed a little later by this.
You may have received an email earlier today announcing a slew of new products to our Henry...

Henry's now adding side loading gate to all steel centerfire rifles and shotguns.
By popular demand, we are excited to announce to you a large transition in our product line to include side...
Forum: Leverguns
I suspect Henry will eventually get around to adding the loading gate to most of their big boy models. Side gate on the X model is a necessity if you have a suppressor installed, just ordered an X in...

Lee 158 grain RNFP in 357 doesn't feed well in my Rossi 92, feeds fine in 38 special. Lee 125 grain RNFP feeds fine for me in 357 and 38 special.

Finally got my 358 barrel installed on the Axis this weekend, had to buy an action wrench, my homemade solutions weren't getting it done.
I was surprised to find that the Shaw 358 barrel is...

Too late for me, my Midway/Shaw barrel kit is due in today.

Just got notification, Midway has barrel kits in.

My donor rifle is 308 heavy barrel 22 inch(I think). Not sure how the weight compares, but I'd rather keep the 308 option if I can get a 358 barrel for less than the cost of a rebore.

Thanks for the link, looks like you got a shooter there.

My Axis will probably look a lot like Buckblind2's when I'm finished, just makes sense. Boyd's laminate, pepper finish looks good with stainless. I have a Vortex scope on my 243 Axis, likely to go...

Got some brass converted to 358, will try to get some 200 RNFP's cast this weekend, hopefully ER Shaw will restock Midway soon.
Forum: Factory Rifles
Midway's out of them at the moment, I'm on the notify list though.

I bought an Axis heavy barrel 308 a few months ago when Savage was offering rebates, now I'm thinking it may need a rebore after reading this thread. I have plenty of 308 brass and 4 molds that drop...

I have the same rifle in blue, it does hold well and the action was smooth right out of the box.

Bought a S&W Victory w/threaded barrel off GB today, Form 1 suppressor should be approved soon.

Used to shoot them when they were in hover mode with my BB gun when I was a kid, now I want a salt gun.

Got my rebate check on the 243HB from Savage today, also ordered a 308HB and 22-250HB from Buds last week, prices were $302 and $236 respectively, I see they're both at $305 today.
