Henry Big Boy Steel | .44 Mag | 20″ Barrel | H012GL

The Henry Big Boy Steel Side Gate is a full-size lever-action rifle chambered for .44 Magnum/.44 Special with traditional American walnut furniture and a 20″ round blued steel barrel. The rifle features a side-loading gate, large loop lever and is drilled and tapped for optics, making it a practical choice for field use and range work. Suggested optic: a 1-6×24 or 2-7×32 low-power variable riflescope (for example, a Vortex model in that range) will pair well under $1,000 and suit rapid target acquisition and close-to-moderate-range hunting shots.
