Another one to play with

[FOTIS]

Picked this one up. Henry All Weather 357 Maggie/38 SPCL

 

[Guy Miner]

I shot one of those quite a bit a couple of years ago. Liked a great deal! The 357 mag loads were picking up about 400 fps over what a 6" 586 S&W revolver would produce. Accuracy was decent, though I didn't do any serious tests, just plinked steel with it for the most part. Easy to carry, easy to shoot. Good looking little rascal.

Enjoy!

Congrats Fotis. Looks like a fun gun to shoot. I imagine it would make a fine little hog rifle.

Nice Fotis, a bang around 357 lever gun is on my list when I can find one at a price I like

 

[FOTIS]

Trigger is very good. Really took me by surprise.

 

[Shakeyjake]

Look forward to hearing how it shoots!

Looks like a good one to have slung while picking Huckleberries with a black bear tag in the pocket.

I have some Matt's bullets 165 grain hard cast with gas check. I got up to 1400 fps in my TRR8 S&W 8 shot 5" barrel. I then lowered it to a more sedate 1250 fps. Those ought to work nicely.

 

[JD338]

Portable drill press right there.

Hope so!

That gun is pretty high on my wish list. Be interesting to see what you think of it after some use.

 

[FOTIS]

Well I took her out on father's day. What a fun gun! Shot 125 XTP's well under an inch at 50 yards at over 2000 fps with 17.5 gr of LILGUN. But the star of the show was this load.

 

[JD338]

Holy smokes Fotis. That's stacking them right in there.

[FOTIS]

Not too shabby for a lever.

 

[Aussie Wanderer]

Great shooting. What a top little scrub gun

That had to put a smile on your face.

Nice load, great shooting!

I consider myself a lever fanatic. I actually have a dedicated safe to nothing but old Winchester lever guns, it's a Winchester 44 and it can't hold anymore guns in it haha. My oldest one is a Model 1873 from the year 1888 in a 44-40 (44 WCF) all the way up to a 1894 made in 1997 in that safe. I look for odd calibers more than old ones though.

I could go on forever about the levers, but I really like yours. That is some great shooting. Out of the three Henry levers I own, I kept none of them stock. I can't say I've had any shoot a .17 group though! Very nice shooting.

 

[FOTIS]

I have a bunch of them. and a few oddballs. This is my favorite one

It is accurate!
