[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 954389, member: 39764"] Having too many rifles seems to be my credo. I always wanted a lever gun in a magnum chambering (not that I need one because I don't) but..... I bought a Henry in 44 magnum with a polished brass receiver and I also bought the gloss rail and gloss rings so a gloss scope was necessary. Not a long range rifle by any means and most likely will stay in it's case, on the wall, but it's a beautiful example of American Made craftsmanship so it deserves an American made optic, aka Leupold VX3 1.5x5x20. I also own one of those early model S&W 44 magnums that Elmer Kieth made famous. The Henry and the Smith make a nice pair and are easy to reload for. I handload 240 grain Sierra Sports Masters in Starline Brass with 12 grains of Unique, plenty of load to take whitetails up here in the Michigan woods anytime. My 44 has deposited many whitetails in the freezer. The Henry would probably make a darn good Moose rifle too. [/QUOTE]
