unsupported this gun gets muzzle end heavy.
I have the Golden Boy and the standard round barrel, less expensive version The lighter, cheaper version is more fun "funner" to shoot. It is hard to mount a scope well on the Henry rifles in order to get any accuracy. The Henry rifles are great otherwise. |

Henry sells all the scope mounts for each rifle. I have the Golden Boy with the Henry mount and a Leopold Freedom 2x7 scope.

Iffy loading procedure that requires a closed action not visible for condition verification and that involves putting a precious body part forward of the muzzle.

I have the standard H001, bought it for my son for xmas about 6-7 years ago. It's the most accurate 22 I have in the safe. I have a like new Winchester 94/22 (ca 1975) there is no comparison in build quality, the Winchester wins in every category except for one, it's not as accurate as the Henry.
I enjoy shooting 22 short out of it. I think it holds 23 rounds of 22 short. Fun little guns..

I have the Golden Boy H004 (.22) and the Big Boy H006M (.357) in octagonal barrels.
They’re a bit front-heavy, but great fun and very accurate. (Anybody putting precious body parts forward of the muzzle to load the gun needs to limit their activities to the use of Nerf weapons.) You do, however, need to make sure you don’t inadvertently launch the loading tube plunger/spring down-range...but that hasn’t been a problem for millions with tube loaders over multiple generations. There are highly-competitive values for these guns available out-of-state.

I have the small game rifle 16" octagon barrel...I don't consider it heavy at all but then I'm not waking through the woods with it either... It has a Skinner peep with a fiber optic Dawson on the front and I consider it very accurate for the type of shooting I like to do with it... Shooting steel out to 50 yards... At the indoor range I post 2" shoot n c targets at 15 yards either way I'm shooting unsupported and I'm very happy with it...
I always load it with the lever open and haven't had any problems... I shoot my 15-22 with red dot better and it wouldn't be my choice for bench shooting at 50 or 100 yards ( although the 24" barrel with Lyman peeps would be interesting) but it's maybe my favorite 22 rifle.... I got rid of a 10/22 to make room for it.... It has the large loop lever which some people don't like but I've found that the action on a 22 is so easy that I'm only really using two fingers to work it and that's at the very front of the loop so it doesn't feel any different than a small loop to me and between the large loop, octagon barrel and peep sight I think it looks great. The only thing I don't like is the wood... It has a cheap furniture processed look kind of like a veneer. I'm not sure what kind of finish is on it but it dents very easily and I always thought walnut was a hard wood. But for the price I get it. All in all a great addition to the stable Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk Last edited by agent88; 04-07-2019 at 12:33 PM.. |

I have the Henry H001L (large loop). Super fun to shoot, especially with Aguila Colibri ammo. I'm only sorry I waited as long as I did to get one.

You do understand the function of a hammer, which in this case is exposed...right?

H001L for the win. Large loop lever. Love mine.
I was sitting on the couch last year looking at the Henry website. My 3 year old grandson was next to me looking at the laptop screen. He said, "get it Grampy!" So, the next day I was at Sportsman's Warehouse buying one. It will be his first rifle.

I used to have a basic Henry H001.
The receiver was cast aluminum, which at time was a bit off-putting to me, I was expecting steel. I have come around since then regarding cheap rimfires with cast aluminum frames, even bought a Heritage Rough Rider |

All of my Henry’s are great. If you haven’t considered the pump model you should, that one is my favorite.
