I assume just about the same scopes that work for the Marlin 1895. Leupold 1-4x20mm seems to be one of the most popular choices. I'm about to mount a Weaver Grand Slam 1-6x32mm on mine - which is about as large as I'd ever want to go on a gun like this.

Where can you get a Henry in 45-70?

You learn something new everyday whether you want to or not.

This is not my rifle, it belongs to a friend at work. He just bought it a couple months ago. I have not had it in my hands yet. I'm just trying to get info for him. I'll find out more about it, today
