Found and purchased a used black edition Henry Survival Rifle!
Not a mark on the gun itself and came with an extra 3rd magazine and a box of 100 CCI Mini Mags. I told him the ammo is almost worth the price of admission.
The guy said he'd shot about 150 rounds through it and it's been great. The stock has a slot for 2 mags, but you can keep the 3rd mag in the receiver and it still all fits inside the stock.
I loaded up a mag with some Winchester bulk 555 copper plated HPs yesterday and stepped out back. It shot perfect. I hung an 8" target up at the base of a tree and from my back deck, roughly measured out to 40 yards. The first 3 shots (standing free hand) hit one in the center ring and 2 others just inside the outer ring low and just right, an inch apart.
I'm far from a great shot these days but that impressed me for the first shots out of a new gun... once I get a better feel for it, I have a feeling it'll be great! :rating10:
