Henry big boy firing pin

I tried to shoot my Henry big boy 44 mag today and it cannot be fired. Less than 1000 rounds and I shot it last time it was fine.

I am wondering is my firing pin broken.

Henry Single Shot Hammer Durability.

Greetings! I own a Henry single shot shotgun, and I am just having some concerns with the long term durability of the MIM hammer. Is this a realistic concern to have? It doesn’t feel as well built as the old H&R hammers. Thanks!

Warranty claim question

I bought the Henry homesteader a few months back and have been enjoying it thoroughly. After about 100 rounds suppressed, the left action bar came out of its slot in the front bolt weight. Upon takedown and examining it looks as though the lip that was holding it in was sheered off. My question is, have any of you had to file a warranty claim and how long will I be without my rifle? Bonus question if you own a homesteader, has this happened to you?

Henry Long Ranger Scope rings

Hello, I had a question the Henry long ranger will be my first firearm. So I don’t know much but I got a great deal on a 50mm scope and I just purchased a 6.5 Creedmoor Long ranger. I pick up the rifle on Monday, I just want to get everything ready for it when I get it. My main question is 50mm too big? And if not what height scope rings should I get to accommodate the 50mm size. Thanks

Henry X Model 30-30 Build

All the main parts are installed, and man this thing is beautiful!

Only non major thing I want to install is a 30-30 quiver. But she’s about done and ready to be sighted in at 100 yards

Just bought a Model X and have some stock questions

Hey, like the title says…just got a model x today in 30-30 and already looking at ways to deck it out.

Just bought the RPP M-Lok set up and now looking to do something about the stock.

I like the form stocks but super pricey, not a fan of the tactical style stocks. I was considering doing a paracord wrap on the stock as it sits today. Has anyone done that before? I tried to do some googling but didn’t have any luck.

Looking for advice on paracord wrapping or any alternatives that won’t break the bank to add a little spice to the “stock” stock.

Thanks!

Extreme inaccuracy issue - Big Boy Steel .44

I have a steel receiver Big Boy in .44 mag, and I am having some really bad issues with inconsistent hits regardless of range or ammo.

Today was my second trip to the range with it, and I went to a 100 yard indoor range to eliminate the variables from shooting out at a farm the first time.

Scope is a leupold 3-9x40, on spec torqued bases and rings on a Henry pic rail, used a laser boresight to get it on paper and I could not keep it on a 9x9 target even at 25 yards. One or two shots might string together, then one would be a foot off, generally high and left, but not consistent.

I was trying to get it sighted in with 225 grain Hornady LeverEvolution flex tips, but also tested it with 240 grain underwood JHPs to see if it was a weight issue. Same general result. 100, 50 and 25 yards all had the same issue, just spread out further at distance.

The backer on the target trolley was pretty shot up, but I did not see anything that looked like keyholing on the holes from me.

Has anyone had an experience like this with their Big Boy? I’m thinking it needs to go back to Henry to get checked out, but figured I would ask this subreddit and see if there might be anything else at play.

FWIW, I am a pretty experienced shooter and zeroed another rifle at the range today without any real issue, so I’m fairly confident it isn’t just me. I did not take the scope off and check with just irons either, which I thought about on the drive home, but that seems unlikely to be the core of this one.

RPP Handguard and Accuracy 30-30

For those running a RPP Handguard, how's your rigs accuracy been affected? I didn't baseline before installing so don't have a frame of reference but, at 2-300 yards I am getting pretty large poi spread.

30-30 running hornady lever evolution.

The set screws that interface horizontally into the barrel are what I am wondering about. They are the plastic tipped set screw variety and I'm curious if those are deflecting as things heat up?

Likewise the set screws at the receiver, did you have to play with those tensions?

Buttstock ammo sleeve for Big Boy .357?

Hi All,

I’m looking for a good buttstock ammo sleeve for a Big Boy .357 carbine. Don’t want anything that looks to “cowboy-ish” or tactical. Just want something easy to put on/take off, snug fitting, and reliable.

Thanks!

30-30 is the GOAT.

What do you think about this build? Not a tacticool. I'm a simple man.

Henry homesteader

Got a new homesteader today, installed the Glock Magwell, when I have the magazine installed on the gun it does not allow the action to close. If I take the mag out it works, anyone else have this issue?
