Sootch seems to really like Henry's. He's done Golden Boy, Big Boy Steel and even a Pump 22 video. From what I understand, he turned my favorite youtube channel onto Henry's (Mrgunsngear) as well.

There aren't a lot of videos out there with the All Weathers, probably because they are still fairly new. I did enjoy watching this one, basically a guy trying different impressive 45-70 loads and seeing how much they can penetrate:

I noticed in the intro, most of the guys where obviously unfamiliar with shooting lever actions. The presenter on the other hand was an old hand with a lever. Very noticeable when you look for it.

I agree. Sootch seems to be very proficient in comparison to his buddies in the video.
