55 or so years ago in South East Asia I carried AK 47s, RPK, FN FAL etc. Now most of my rifles are single shot, trust me, you're cool.

13 yrs of age dad gave me a HR Topper break action 30-30 cal. I loved it then dad graduated me to a 03-A3 30-06 cal factory Christmas tree adjustable site when I turned 16. I’m 68 now and my memory bank kicks out days of old hunting and target shooting with dad. Loved it when we were in the shooting/reloading shack hand me a reload try this,,,,try this,,,,try this which one groups better. Thanks Pop!

M1903A1 is one of my dream rifles I love the old WW1-WW2 bolt action rifles

[@davesherrell447]

I can't believe you used corroded ammo. I would have cleaned those bullets with 000x wire wool. But that is a beautiful rifle. A friend of mine has the same rifle fitted with a scoop. Absolute tack driver

[@PassivePortfolios]

If the bullets are not stabilizing, the bullets' diameter is too small or the rifle's bore is too large. Been there, done that with a Savage 308 using Chinese ammo. The Chinese bullets' diameter was undersized and they hit the target sideways.

Thank you for the video . Amazing how little recoil that Henry rifle has. Single shot long guns are simple to use, cost less generally and are easy to clean. Enjoy you rifle.

You may not be an operator but a survivalist. Those ARs will breakdown in a war of attrition but you will still be trucking.

[@darealmacpower5702]

This is called blue state COPIUM

[@tcup3946]

@darealmacpower5702 Garand thumb just did a video how fast you can blow out a AR. The AR fatal flaw. Aluminum and pins. A Colt m16A2, couldn't handle more than about 5 training sessions of SOI. If you really want a robust SHTF rifle. AK I like smaller bullets like 22mag I can carry a couple thousand rounds

Dude, rather than worrying about being tacti-cool, why don't you clean up the yard and fix the roof on the shed, set up a proper shooting bench, and target backers at known distances? Lol! Okay, now that I knocked on you a little bit, the first thing you need to do is get some good ammo so you can really see what kind of accuracy you can get out of that rifle with iron sights and your shooting skills. You also need to learn what the twist rate is in it so that when you are buying hunting or heavy bullet ammunition you can make sure that you will get ammunition that will properly stabilize and be accurate in your rifle. It looks like you should have some good hunting opportunities right there around the homestead, and that rifle with the right ammo will work perfectly fine for deer and hogs as long as you can put the shots in the right place. Who is Henry's a nice little rifles. Good luck and thanks for sharing!

[@W7Mike5150]

What state do you...oh no. Your in NY too huh lol. I'm going to pick one of these up this week. Got a sub from here in CNY.

[@ssuperstar8989]

Hello. That rifle has a 1:9 twist rate. For that the best bullet is going to be a 55 grain or 62 grain. Anything heavier will not be optimal performance. Winchester 62 grain is just a suggestion, it seems to be one of the best for accuracy and price point. Best of luck !

[@chrisquintana3877]

Mine likes 68-69 grain.

[@dougmoore5252]

It is a nice rifle. It must be hard to live in that type of state and adjust your choice’s.

[@donc4372]

You can get a youth stock for it from henry

[@MegaRiffraff]

👍🏻

[@jefftuckercfii]

Pretty rifle, but way overpriced for what it is. $597 when you can go to PSA and get a full on AR-15 for $400? This better shoot like a precision rifle at this price. This is more than a lot of entry level bolt action rifles using cartridges much better suited for hunting than 5.56/.223. And they don't make one in 6.5 Creedmoor, which is what I'm interested in.

[@charlesburdette7497]

Put a scope on it reach out to 300 yards

Great basic rifle and now you have to work on your basics. First off from my point of view, stop slapping the trigger. Another basic is to practice your free standing aim and shoot. I could go on and on, so I'll just say "basics" and you can do the work.

[@nancykrull2151]

Clean your back yard!

[@Lonewolfoperator]

Should have seen it 4 years ago when I first moved in its 1000 times better no2

[@darealmacpower5702]

Why the constant need to say "pretending to be an operator" sounds like blue state COPIUM

[@Lonewolfoperator]

Just being a smart ass I don't have a issue with people pretending to be a operator as long as you are training with your gear as long as you are not pretending to be military

[@firestorm8471]

if you bought a Henry, you paid 3 x what it should cost... Or more.

[@Gerald2121]

Compared to what? A single shot made in Turkey or Brazil? No thanks, I'll take an American made Henry.

[@thebigfellar7178]

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. 223 is not suitable for deer. I know, I know, I know. Heard it a million times over. 223 was and has been a groundhog, gopher, varmint round since its inception...!!! The military chose it. Heard them all. The reason the Gov't chose the round was it's fast accurate, cheap, light to carry, and best of all wounds the enemy. A wounded enemy is worth a lot more than a dead one. Takes #4 people to carry them out, more to attend and treat them, and costs a lot more money than a dead one. Now that being said, you screwed up...!!! ""Royal""...!!! So, did I. So does everyone who doesn't know. And very few I've ever met knows. Including so-called gun experts. The 55-grain bullet is the choice weight, for all "Bulk" ammo. All of it is 55 grains. Everything you buy mostly is "55"grains.""" Until you know""...!!! 100 to 1 that rifle has a 1-9 twist. Every 223 on the market, including Ar-15's and such have a 1-9 twist barrel. Well guess what that's great if all you are going to do is shoot groundhogs and shoot at the enemy within 200 yards. Anything further and something like a deer, you're going to need bigger bullets. Like a 62, or 72 or 90, grain bullets or etc. You're getting the idea. The one to get or find that is ""Golden" "is a 1-7 twist. It'll shoot all of them accurately. A 1-8 is second place, but it'll shoot most of them accurately. But a 1-9 twist will never shoot the higher weights accurately due to the 1-9 twist. They even make a 1-12 twist. It really sucks brown water. Finding a 1-7 is going to be the greatest challenge you've faced yet. Very few know this little thing. Those that do, are generally snipers. As in real life, gone through the schools and done the time on the line. Their rifle has a dope chart taped to the butt stock. That kind. Savage makes #3 bolt guns with a 1-7. Tikka makes #2 and a couple 1-8. And that's it pretty much it. But I haven't looked lately. I had an Ar-15 made with a 1-7 twist. Cost me like $400-500 for the barrel. Gunsmith did it all. Put a 4-16-40 scope on her and she can go to 1000 yards easy. Fools will argue otherwise. But then again there ""are""""a lot of experts out there. Isn't it...!!! So, if you're set on hunting deer, I'd suggest you get a 223 not a 5.56 if you want accuracy. a 223 barrel is totally different than a 5.56. All the experts will say they are the same. I can assure you they are """""NOT"""...!!! A 223 barrel will outshoot a 5.56 any day of the week. Most 223 will shoot 5.56 but not accurately. And I'd rather be accurate. So best begin your search early. Or simply buy a 243. A 90 grain 223 will kill exactly the same as a 243 with a 1-7 twist. But 55grains is not 90 is it. And a 1-9 is not a 1-7. Advice is the only thing you get for free, that is worth anything for nothing. Heed my words young man. You're now ahead of 99.7% of most hunters and shooters and ""Experts""...!!! The rifle you want is a rifle that shoots 223 and has a 1-7 twist. If it'll shoot both 5.56 and 223 you do not want it. Accuracy is 223 and 1-7 only. Hard to find, but you'll be shooting chucks out to 1000 yards if you heed my words. Trust me on this. And don't go getting a sniper scope either. A 4-16-40 is what the real ones do it with. Peace.
