Home Forums Lever Action Central Rimfire Levers a first henry for me

My oldest boy loves our .22 lr Small Game Rifle. It's yet to draw blood, but it carries, handles and shoots so well I've no doubt that's soon to come.

I love the old Marlins, but the Henry H001 is the best deal around for a new 22lr.

Might as well revive this thread...... Three days ago I picked up the base model Henry .22 levergun ( H001) on sale. Only have 30 rounds through it so far but I'm liking it. Only thing under consideration now is that I might upgrade the sights a bit. Any other comments on the Henry H001 in general? It does seem like a sweet deal on a new 22LR .

I'd say best buy out there on a new lever 22.......

congrats.........one won't be enough.............

Try different kinds of ammo. Mine will shoot 1/2 inch at 50 yards with CCI mini mag round nose. It doesn't feed stingers all that well. It has a nice smooth action and a pretty decent trigger. Factory sights are poor I maybe should have got the octagon barrel model with better sights but the H001 seemed to fit/feel better in the gun store.

I fired a friends 17 HMR this week. Very smooth action and shoots very well. I would wish for a more robust ejector.

I to find the drop on the stock more than I shoot well.

He had 2 that we shot and both have top of the line walnut and very nicely finished . The 2nd one was a 243 WIN.
