Provider and Protector

[5shot]

Just ran a few rounds through this little .360 carbine. I can't say how accurate it is until it gets some optics mounted. The 16" barrel does cost a little velocity. Full power 200 gr. Hornady RN clocks around 2200 fps out of the 22" barrel of my single shot while this carbine just barely cracks 2000. That's still .35 Remington horsepower which has been doing the job for over a century.

Sweet handling little rascal and they put nice wood on it. I like it.

Great report. Not too crowded at your range, must be all that white dirt I can see in front of the line.

Yes it was a little frosty out there. One other guy there and he was in the heated shack with his new Ruger MK IV .22 that couldn't get through a full magazine without a jam. He wasn't very good company so I just went in there long enough to warm up. Can't blame him for being upset but I don't envy the Ruger customer service person that got to take his call.

I have an order in with Ranger point so the "Protector" will soon be wearing a takedown screw, a hammer extension and a pic rail.

Is that a 'Goat' brass catcher? I use one and like it.

I'm not familiar with the Goat brass catcher??

Hey 5shot, I misinterpreted the photo. Look it up. The brass catcher is a great device.

Well someone with a new 16” 45-70 please tell me the length of the tube? I have a full size 45-70 H10 and the barrel barely clears the tube at 18.25”. Henry tells me the tubes are the same length. How can that be possible?

According to the Henry website:
The H10 Provider Rifle magazine capacity is 6 rounds, while the H10 Protector Carbine magazine is 4 rounds. Obviously between those 2 models the tubes are not the same length.

In some other 45-70 models, the mag tube length for the Rifle and Carbine versions is the shorter 4 round tube. Examples: H10 CCH and H10 Brass.

The Provider isn’t 45-70. I’m looking specifically at the tubes on the H10 rifle compared to the H10 Protector. Looks to me like the standard mag tube is longer after the tube loading cutout.

Maybe I'm not getting what you're getting at. ???
The barrel of the H10 Protector Carbine is shorter that the H10 CCH Rifle. Both have a 4 round magazine. The difference in those two pictures is due to barrel length. 22" for the rifle and 16.5" for the carbine. There was an older model, H010 GCC (CCH) with an 18.43 barrel, also 4 round magazine. In the older model, the receiver may be different with placement of the mag tube pushed further out. Looking at Henry website I don't see an H10 CCH with a 18.5" barrel, just the 22". So maybe what you have is the older H010 GCC???
