Henry Lever Rifle Conversion To 17 Mach II??
I picked up a Henry lever action in 22 LR at a pawn shop for a stupid price but I already have 2 so I was thinking of rebarreling it to a 17 Mach II, any issues I need to be aware of? I don't think the pointed bullets will be an issue because of the rimfire but that's one reason I'm asking. Thanks

Too bad you don't live closer...I'd be happy to own a Henry in 22LR !

The 17 Mach 11 was nothing but trouble with the ammo ,why bother ?

You have a real nice gun why mess it up /

Just my 2 cents worth

I have a couple of Mach II's and never had an issue, what trouble are you referring to? The biggest reason is I had a couple of cases of ammo given to me and I'd rather shoot it with my Daughter than get rid of it.
