Re: Found One
Congrats. Does seem to have some nice wood.
I finally handled one a couple mons. back, didn't realize the heft of the rifles.
Hope you post a range report, once you get a chance to put it through the paces.

Re: Found One
Excellent wood. BigAl is right - these rifles don’t get enough love. The .243 I have loves Federal 95 grain hybrid hunters - if you can find them.
The single shots are not only a pleasure to shoot, they’re quite accurate in my experience. They’re also beautiful in their simplicity and they’re Henry’s - so they’re backed by one of the best.
I really look forward to your range reports. You’ve picked a fine one.

Re: Found One
I purchased one in 350 Legend 2 months ago but had to send it back to Henry due to the barrel movement. With the action closed you could hold the rifle by the pistol grip and when you shake it the barrel would move side to side slightly. With the action open the movement was about 1/8 inch. I am waiting to hear from Henry about repair or replacement of rifle.
Re: Found One
My .350 Legend has some movement when open but not when locked up. My dealer had a .243 and a .44 that had movement when open. I contacted Henry and was told that is normal but I could send it in if I was concerned. I figure if that is normal, what's the use of returning it. It has the nicest wood I've seen on a rifle in a long time and figured with my luck it would get damaged or replaced.
