Alex. Henry rifles were superbly built, they were BPE rifles, many of them Best Quality. I very much like them.

Are you talking about Alexander Henry, the Scotts rifle-builder who actually designed most of the action that Farquharson was later credited for, or the new Henry company who make reproduction arms, mostly lever-action rifles?

The first are superb, the second looks like a cheap break-action along the lines of the old Stevens/Savage combination .22-.410's.

Sorry gentlemen, I should have clarifed my initial question better.
I was asking about the new Henry single shot rifles made in WI now.
I am in need of such a rifle in a new straight wall, single shot State here for this Fall, for deer season only.
Sorry I was not more specific.
Thank you!
Wes

I don't have one. But I've read a number of reviews. Mostly all positive. Mostly 1.5" accuracy. Some people report better. I wanted an NEF/Handi-rifle at one point and was looking at these once those were gone. Also, looks like T/C is coming back in the near future if you like break actions.

Thank you, skl1, for your reply. I do appreciate it!

I am waiting delivery on mine in .360 Buckhammer this week, hopefully?

I've read some reports on UuTube so far and mostly positive, as you stated.

Thank you!
