Remingtons dropping a new caliber and Henry is making the gun for it. I’m anxious to see one in person

That should sell well in states that allow straight wall cartridges during muzzleloader seasons.

Looks like a fad gun like the 6.5 creedmoor

I’m interested as well. I have been wanting to acquire a lever gun for some close range deer hunting. Mainly just always wanted a lever gun. Also saw where bond arms came out with a lever action lower for an ar15.

Sounds like an abomination

Someone needs to revive the 38-55

You just need a 30-30... true and tried

It doesn’t look conventional for sure, but that’s never bothered me.

It’s still alive, barely. Winchester is still chambering it in the 94. Ammunition is the real challenge. Unless you reload, HSM and Buffalo Bore are about your only options and those are truly scarce.

Yep , Illinois is going to straight wall cartridges for 2023 I am told but I am pretty sure has to be a single shot centerfire rifle

Agreed! I cant even fathom the sheer ugliness of this thing.

Straight walled 35 Remington. Almost identical ballistics.

They did. It was the .375 Winchester. Good cartridge that never really took off.

Some states that allow only straight wall cartridges also have an OAL restriction. Somewhere around 2". This eliminates the .45-70 and I assume some of the other rounds mentioned. I think this cartridge came to be simply because of that restriction, so it may be legal in ALL states.
Also, if you've happened to shop around for a lever gun lately, they're getting quite pricey. It's a current fad. This gives Henry another entry into the market.
