Thanks! I agree about the Henrys!

Completely agree I bought the same lever action he’s using and now I have 4 Henry lever actions great guns

[@jacobc9864]

Just bought one for my son. It’s tough waiting til Christmas to give it to him. From all the reviews I’ve seen they seem pretty legit.

[@chentem7952]

I just bought one for my son an daughter also. They got to wait till Christmas too being that California has a 10day cool off period an the 10th day lands the 23rd the day before Christmas eve.

[@Quadrenaro]

Just bought one for my 2nd daughter. She'll be born next month, so it'll be awhile before she takes it out.

[@randyfurness5588]

Henry rifles are more than legit. They are the best at any price.

Just bought one for my son's 12th birthday in July. My short wait is still gonna kill me!

[@Gregster1234]

I bought one about 4 months ago and can’t keep my hands off of it. At least 1000 rounds of LR down range and only 2 dud bullets. Easy to shoot and clean. I did send it back because it shot high and to the right no matter what. Henry made it right no questions asked. Great company for sure.

[@tonyadams6375]

Thank you for the video. I have had one of these little rifles for several years now. Absolutely zero complaints.

[@Jeanie363034]

The Henry is only missing one thing----a Ruger Wrangler to go with it. Perfect plinking and hunting pair. They shoot the same ammo easy to use for young and old alike. Fun guns.

[@richardflaherty2373]

Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to create this informative video. I have recently purchased a Henry so this video was perfect for me.

[@mofatjippyfransisco713]

Mine was an impulse buy today, own a few Henry's...44 mag/45-70/new 357 side gate loader. Walked into Big 5 today, and they had this on sale for 369...glad to see it cycles long and shorts too !

[@taofledermaus]

It eats everything!

[@saltydiarrhea386]

TAOFLEDERMAUS suppress it, for science! Sup OG Daddy-o?

[@buffalosoutdoors]

It's got an appetite!

[@evanwindom3265]

No, it doesn't. Try running snap-caps or other types of inert ammo through it. We have one in our hunter education classes, and it consistently misfeeds with inert ammo. It's even made a trip back to the factory with no real improvement.

[@Chief2Moon]

Evan Windom Only in your context would inert ammo be an issue. What do you do when teaching students how to cycle a pump shotgun?

[@evanwindom3265]

@@Chief2Moon There are a variety of snap-cap type products that work well in the shotguns. We use available .22 LR snap caps in other rifles, such as the Ruger 10/22 and Ruger American, even a 45-year-old Stevens, and they feed much more consistently than the Henry does. Don't get me wrong. I really enjoy the Henry. But the inability to reliably feed inert ammo that's commonly available on the market is a headache for us. And when it misfeeds, it's a huge hassle to clear. Think about it -- you buy a rifle for a single specific task, and it fails completely at that task. It's more than a little frustrating. At this point, it's pretty much useless for our application. Yes, I realize our application isn't mainstream. But to say it "eats everything" is an overstatement, especially if you've never tried feeding it inert ammo.

[@TheMagnumChannel]

Those crimped shotshells have been harder to find in recent years, but the crimped ones have definitely produced much more useable patterns than the cci variety for me. Henry lever guns are just cool!

[@buffalosoutdoors]

I haven't patterned these but that is something I need to do. Thanks for watching! Keep up the good work over on your channel.

[@Roosterdad50]

I would like very much to see that. It sounded like the Federal rounds were a bit more powerful. : )

[@captainobvious1721]

I really appreciate you doing a video with .22 shorts and other stuff. It seems like people do the regular .22 lr all too often and don't give any love to the other chamberings.

[@robertsr.249]

I own this exact rifle , it will always work , exceptional firearm !

[@Stu650Zuk]

Awesome little rifles. I bought one when they first came out years ago. Its a great little shooter and alot of fun to. Service from Henry is top notch also. My barrel band wasn't keeping the forearm tight. I gave them a call and Anthony himself talked to me. He sent me a new forearm as well as a new band. Then he decided to send me all new wood so it would match perfectly!! Great service, and I gotta say he must of been saving the wood he sent me as its the nicest wood I have ever seen for a gun in this price range. It's got a tiger stripe look to it and its awesome.

[@buffalosoutdoors]

Now that's a customer service testimonial! I wish they all were like that!

[@bltefft]

I have several Henry’s and I shoot CB Longs and CB Shorts (and other subsonic 22’S) out of them. Today, I encountered a problem for the first time. Out my Golden Boy had I shot 30 rounds of CB Shorts, then loaded a tube of CB Longs. That was a mistake, if I known then, what I know now, I would have thoroughly cleaned that Henry first. Those CB Shorts, being short like they are, fouled up the chamber and the first CB Long I chambered, and shot, failed to extract because it had gotten jammed up in the chamber fouled by those CB Shorts. The problem was the fresh round in the tube, it got jammed up because of the one stuck in the chamber. I used some needle nose pliers to get at it, but only pulled the bullet out of the case. I finally had to field strip the Golden Boy to get the case out. I was successful and got it back together, cleaned the chamber good with a rod and brush, and bore snake, and it is again shooting good. Here’s what I learned - from now on, I’m gonna thoroughly clean a lever action rifle, before moving from CB Shorts to CB Longs.

[@Tdream8]

Good to know that is cycles everything well including shorts and birdshot. Great pace and info in this video. Thanks!

[@theshomershow208]

I've got one of these little rifles and they are awesome! I need to get it out and put some round down range. I've noticed some rounds are so quiet you really only hear the action of the gun. I've not put anything through mine except the 22LR so its nice to see how it functions with other 22 ammo. Nice video buffalo!

[@buffalosoutdoors]

Thanks my friend! It seems to gobble up anything I throw at it! Kinda like me when it comes to food...LOL

[@theshomershow208]

lol

[@jimkoonce6574]

I bought the Golden boy, and love it! Henry builds great firearms in all of their lines, and this is one of the many I want.

[@buffalosoutdoors]

This is my only Henry currently but I will have more as soon as my budget allows!

[@stuartrobinson2248]

I just bought the Henry HO18 .410 lever action shotgun for my wife for her birthday. I think that before the end of the month we'll pick up one of these little Henry .22's as well, since from what I've seen they're a pretty excellent little gun. It'll be a nice match for the .410.

[@TheKentuckyPatriot]

Awesome review brother! My grandfather was a huge Henry fan. He had several and they all had great actions and ran great! :-)

[@buffalosoutdoors]

It's like me. It'll eat just about anything in sight!

[@TheKentuckyPatriot]

HAHAHA! Same here brother!

[@garylavorgna5976]

Another great video, thanks. And thanks for the tip on leaving the action open when loading. I have learned so much from your videos. You are a great teacher. I have the H001T with a Skinner peep sight.

[@ploppyploppy6554]

Just as I go for my five o'clock run Mr Buffalo shows me a new type of bullet and why the length of bullet is crucial to the type of target . Thanks . Can I say as a compliment you are like a machine firing .

[@buffalosoutdoors]

Thanks! Didn't mean to interrupt your run!

[@blchamblisscscp8476]

Thanks for the review. I have the octogon barrel Fronitier edition. I haven't shot any shotshells out of it yet, nor shorts or longs. But im now eager to try them.

[@bbhrdzaz]

Got 4 of the Henry's as gifts to my wife and kids years ago. I got one too. You could demo how mixing the different cartridges might work? I think these rifles are just plain fun. I have found the CCI 22 Short Quiet to be very quiet yet still deliver enough velocity for short range game. Also, try some Colibri 22 powderless rounds, as powerful as a pellet gun, and shreds your favorite aluminum cans with fun.

[@swok1871]

I was going to post similar ideas to try with your Henry, mine and my daughters both have ran a mix of rounds in one loading. Never have had a single feed/ejecting every round we feed it...

[@stuartmarkman769]

I have the model with the peep sight and larger lever loop. It shoots great and with the peep sight I can hit 2" targets at 50 yds. no problem. It has an octagon barrel. For a 22 it sure feels good because of the extra weight of the barrel.

[@TimHPop776]

I just purchased a Henry .22 H001L carbine with the large loop. I have fired so many different .22 rounds with no issues, it is just crazy how well it performs!! I had no idea that there was bird shot out there as well!! Good video! Thanks.

[@billbeard391]

Call me old fashioned but I would never put shot through any rifled barrel. That's what un-rifled shotguns are for. Get an over under 22 / .410 if you want to have a 22 that shoots shot.

[@tytrue1767]

Have you tried .22 win mag? I have the same rifle but haven’t tried it yet

[@billbeard391]

No, but I had that option when I bought the Henry Golden Boy 22LR/L/S for Xmas. I preferred that option of the 3 different rounds. 22Ss are as silent as the subsonic rounds in 22LR. Took my 40 y.o. daughter to shoot for the 1st time in her life and after 10 minutes of training from this old Vietnam INF vet her first shot group @ 25yds was all within 2 in. or less of dead center. Did equally well in both prone and standing positions. She's a natural.@@tytrue1767

[@liaodesign]

Just purchased Henry classic today and now I stumble to this video great video!

[@squib3083]

great video bro. my H001 jammed like crazy on 22LR. it required the action to be cycled very fast otherwise the nose of bullet would pop up and not go into the chamber. it ran shorts fine. something about the OAL of the cartridge because when i found some shorter overall 22LRs it cycled them better

[@x.kourts2709]

I just brought a henry, I never new it could use all those rounds! Thank you I love it even more now!

[@buffalosoutdoors]

Awesome!

[@christiandehlinger3731]

Great feeding little rifle. It is something that CCI or anyone makes a long anymore. It has been historic to me that a long was a LR case with a short bullet. The point contemplated was, "what is the benefit"? When CCI did the Stinger, we now had an extended case with a 32 grain bullet driven beyond normal LR velocities. CCI taking that further, took the Stinger case and necking it to .17 made the 17HM2. All fun! re.

[@tcafan]

Good to see how the classic Henry performs.

[@buffalosoutdoors]

It's extremely reliable for sure! That means a lot to me!

[@johnpately6911]

Nice rifle Buffalo wish they would make at least one model with a loading gate, still great rifles none the less.

[@buffalosoutdoors]

It seems I remember reading somewhere that there were issues with 22 lr loading gates. Maybe it was the early Marlin design, I can't remember.

[@BigSam63]

No real reason for a loading gate on a .22 rifle...

[@me2bfc]

They have started making a couple of their 30 30 and 45 70 models with loading gates and removable tube magazines.

[@me2bfc]

I just snagged one of these on a new years deal. I wanted one for just this reason. It will feed and fire basically any 22 ammo you can find. I had forgotten about shot shells. Those would likely solve my rat issue in my back yard. Those or the Colibri rounds.

[@mee1492]

@@me2bfc If you give shotshells a try I recommend the shells federal makes. Seem to be more consistent. Hopefully they work great for you as well.

[@johnwilliamson2276]

I bought one of these .22 Henry rifles about 4 years ago. It would shoot long rifles all day, but when it came to shorts, no way! They jammed in the chamber on almost every shot! I found that it liked the Remington Yellow Jackets more than any other round I put through it. But the grouping was over an inch and a half. Not what I wanted for squirrels. So it stays in the gun cabinet.

[@buffalosoutdoors]

Well that stinks!

Funny as soon as I got the Henry I ran out and bought .22 shorts just because it had been such a long time since I had anything that would run it. All my other .22s at the time were autoloaders. I also like the Henry because even now I still like lever guns. Thanks for the video.
