If I may since I too am a satisfied Henry 44 Mares Leg owner, and also Marlin lever gun owner in 35 caliber. I find both have good qualities as tools, I'd like to have an 1860 in 45 Colt.
I need to add an Uberti 1873 rifle to my collection. Love the case hardening colors!
I agree. That is pretty excessive. I wonder why. I have heard this before about the 17hmr variants.It was shooting 4" groups at 50 yds He didn't expect it to be a one-holer, but 4" is certainly not "acceptable" by any reasonable standard.
Same here.Nice engraving on that rifle. Always nice to know a fellow traveling man.
Not true. Lever actions have a much higher rate of fire than Mauser actions, approaching a double on the 2nd shot and of course faster after that.he only reason to own a lever action rifle is nostalgia. No lever action does anything better than other action types from a performance perspective.
Do we know this for a fact or are we doing some mental acrobatics to justify the higher cost?The stronger frame on the HRA Henry is the key here, that is if we can ever find out what alloy they are adding to the brass to make them stronger.
