H001 Range Report
« on: January 03, 2012, 02:45:43 AM »
I took my new Henry out Saturday to sight it in.  I'm using a BSA scope.  At 50 yards the first 5 shots were almost 1".  Most shots were touching.  This was using CCI minimags.  I didn't try any other ammo.  Some groups were tighter at .5".  I experienced no fliers like I do with my 10-22.  I really like this gun.

I'm thinking of picking up a H001 to play around with, and a woods walking rifle. Don't really need it but just want to add a lever action 22. May go with a peep sight to keep it light and handy. :)

I LOVE my H001. The Marlin folks will sneer at you, but it's a great little rifle and the action is smooth as butter.

Be sure to try some CCI CB shorts in it. 29 gr, 710 fps.
Tiny little bang, then you wait a while and get a "plink".
I can shoot them in the house without earplugs.
The difference between people who do stuff and people who don't do stuff is that the people who do stuff do stuff.

DO IT! A "need" can be very loosely defined.
