This is assuming the use of a monte carlo rifle stock and not a low comb shotgun stock.

With Warne MT lows and an old K4, I’m able to forgo the use of a hammer spur on my Henry .357. Needs a slip-on cheek pad though, and I only use the scope for testing, going with a Romeo 5 to save weight.

You're right about the stock(s). They're pretty nice.

I ran down a brand new Henry for just a touch over $500.00, I was beginning to think ANY .30-30 single shot was in the Unicorn league. I had sold a .30-30 Contender not so long ago, so still had brass for that. Just thinking about cast bullets in this, leave the jacketed for the M94.

I'm going to see if I can get her to barking this weekend.

Not sure what to scope it with, I have alot of glass laying around. Kinda thinking about mounting a nice old El Paso Weaver 3X I have had for awhile .

That’ll be a good combo. I ended up putting an old El Paso Weaver 2.5 on mine. Works great!

That’s exactly how I set one up for my son’s 30/30.
