Henry upgraded the big boy - it's now lighter, and has a steel receiver

I find tube loading slicker than gate loading when I shoot the Henry and the Rossi side by side. It's nice that they think a bit different.
It's also a nod to the original Henry.
Big boy is a heavy thing, though. R92 weighs nothing next to it

That is good news. If I was buying a new lever action i would give Henry a very serious look. The tube loading is counter to my levers but not a game changer. In many decades of hunting with levers I have never needed to reload while hunting. One accidental discharge happened when a guy dropped the hammer on a Win 94 while unloading. The Henry system shines for unloading and never having to chamber a round or work the lever.
I still use my 444 or Win 94s and 92s but if buying a new lever Henry makes an honest alternative to a Remlin, Winoku, Rossi or Italian choices. Most folks rave about the fit and finish.
