Major 2,

Thanks.

Perhaps, someday soon, I will be able to attend my first sanctioned NCOWS shoot thanks to your efforts at getting a Posse set up in Florida.
My best,
Blair

Beautiful wood on the Henry!  Interesting, as I was at a club match a couple of weeks ago, and a fella was shooting a Henry Big Boy in 45LC.  Rifle was a bit clunky, but the wood was stunning!  I think HRAC has their act together in the wood department.  Judging by Major 2s pics, they did a nice job overall with this Henry Original model. :)

A buddy of mine has one on order.  If it functions as good as it looks, I might have to order one me own self! ;D

I'm curious how they made the bolt AND if we owners of old Uberti Henry rifles may use parts by this co. to maintain said old Ubertis.  ???

I can speak of interchangeably... but the bolt is the same toggle design.

Major Deuce, if you were to open an account in photobucket (for free) you could post your photos direct and they would appear larger & clearer.  ;)

FCK  you can click on the photos and they will enlarge

The Rifle was capable , I shot 2 3/4" Group @ 100 yards considering it was raining & windy at the covered Indian River County Shooting Public Range.
The light rain was steady and the breeze straight at me.
With open sights and my eyes that's plenty except-able ....hell exceptionable.

Ah, I take it no one has taken it apart yet (drool drool) to look hard at the innards.  I plan to be in Orlando in March (Disney World) and would be most happy to reduce it to parts and pieces for ya.  ;D ;D ::)

That's why the good Major started this thread, as a teaser to bring in new members ;)

Guilty as charged  ;)

I have made the dead line, and I was assured the Winter (upcoming) issue will carry the review...

I also plan to bring it to the NCOWS Convention in March (God Willing) for viewing....Might even shoot it at the Thursday Shoot.

Fingers... I'm looking forward to meeting you, an hope you'll bring the Whitney you just got  :D

As-always I look forward to seeing Will   :)

This past Saturday, I passed the 700th round through the Henry H011.
Aside from the one Round very early on with a failed primer, there have been no hiccups.
The Failed round was factory loaded and would not fire after three taps ( one of which in a Uberti Henry).

Mostly Factory Ammo, but about 200 rounds were reloaded BP  ( full case 2FF with 200 grain .430 pill )

The Factory loads have been Black Hills when I can get it, Ulrtamax and one box of Magtech.
all have fed just fine...

Major, wish I could be at the convention to see it. I really enjoyed reading the write up in the Shootist. It appears HRA really did a great job on the rifle. Hopefully it pays off for them.
