Found the right ammo for Henry .22 rifle!
« on: May 09, 2010, 02:03:47 PM »
After some more thinking/tinkering around, I found that the Remington ThunderBolts are fantastic in my little Henry to 45 yards. Punching the same hole! No fliers. I was getting fliers with Winchester X, CCI Stingers; all brand of sub-sonics were horrible. All guns carry their own niche, and the ThunderBolts work great in this Henry. This is my new squirrel gun for me; being an old man and not wanting to carry around anything heavy. This little Henry will be around long after I am gone. I have other .22 rifles, but they will set in my safe; oiled, dry and ready for my grandson one day.

Hope this helps anyone who may have encountered problems finding a load that can stay tight on target on their little Henry .22.

The Henry 22 std I used to have fed everything, and was just brilliant...it is on the top of my buy list once I get working again.
