| Henry Frontier Rifle
I know I said I wouldn't scope this Henry but I just had too. It will be later this week before I can take it to the range.

Cool scope, kind of a waste for a 22 would look better on one of my Winchesters,  so tell me about this scope I like the frontier style stuff.

I know this is kind of off-topic, but what do you think of the Henry rifle? My son would love a .22 lever-action (birthday coming up soon) and I haven't been impressed by the Marlin 39A and I like the looks of the Henry more than the Browning.
Thanks,
Jim

Thanks,
Jim | Glad you asked. The Henry has one of the smoooooothest actions of any lever action I've ever used. I would highly recommend one.

Thanks,
Jim | I too have a Henry 22 lever action, and I love it! The action is smooth and I've never had a problem with it. There's just something about a lever action, even if it's a 22.

That scope looks so "right" on the Henry. I put an old scope I've had since the 1970's on my Henry and it looks okay...
