I received my new 41 mag today. I like the looks and the feel. It is raining here so I just shot it 3 times from the porch. I busted 2 out of 3 clay's at about 50 yards. I will do a range report shooting from a rest when the weather clears up.
I will do a photo if I ever figure out how.

Congrats. They are some fine rifles, glad Henry made these.
Got mine about a month ago, haven't got to play with it as much as l'd like to yet.
But I will say it will group at 50 yds.
Hoping to spend some more time with it soon.

I'm sorry to have passed up some great S&W .41 magnums over the years.

In all my interest in firearms, this is all I have in .41 magnum.

To use that you have to paste a copy of the URL for the photo you are using between the two inside brackets. It's computer nerd stuff.
Here is a link to Daytime Daves thread in Computer help to use the online photo management sites.

I use Photobucket most often, once you get used to it it is easy. I also use an app on my iPad called Tinypic and it is simple to set up. But I find it is more work to post the pics here with it.

The .41 is such s sweet cartridge. I'll bet even more so in a rifle. Can't wait to see pics and a range report.

Looks good arky.
I added one to mine Jeb,
Think it adds to its already good looks.
And should make hunting this winter a bit easier with the gloves.

That's why pictures are so great to have....thanks for posting, arky.

Another well-dressed Henry! Your wood checkering and the soft flow of wood grain lines in your stock are beautiful.
Enjoy your new H012M41.

No real accuracy report yet. I moved last Fall and am still getting things set up. I finished my new reloading table to weeks ago as well as got 3 loads of dirt for a berm. Still no target stands built. But, its record at 50 yards so far is 4 out of 5 skeet clay's. I have 66 year old eyes and a rest and bulls eye will not show how accurate the gun is. My usual fun with lever guns is shooting clay's off hand at 50 and 75 yards. Three of them have ghost rings or peeps and I sometimes stretch that to 100 yards with them.
In my eyes, the big loops do not make the gun look better but I do recognize the functionality of them. However, it is not often cold enough here to require bulky gloves. I usually use thin wool ones. If it is below 25 degrees I hunt by the campfire. Now that me and my hunting buddies are older we agree that we are not near as mad at the deer as we used to be!
