Rifles / Re: Lever Gun for general purpose
June 22 2023 12:56:33 PM MDT
So I actually looked at all weather yesterday in 357 mag. Went back today during my lunch time to get it. It was sold and no more in stock. So now I?m going to either go back tomorrow and get a Henry in 44 mag or track down another 357. Disappointed it was sold but maybe I was meant to get a 44 ? I know another place some what locally that has the 357 in stock. Now I?m trying to decide if the 44 mag/44 special would serve my needs better or not than the 357 mag / 38 special. Going to sleep on it tonight.

Like you graybeard bit more than I?m willing to spend. I?m Just going to stick with a Henry lever gun.

I agree they are pricey. I'm still holding out for someone to come out with a Lever gun in 10mm. The Henry 357 Mag is really nice gun but i want a 10mm so both rifle and handgun use the same ammo and only need to carry one type of ammo.

Saw That the Thureon Defense 10mm Carbine weighs in about the same as your hi-point Kenk. They care Glock mag compatible so that's huge plus. I also saw that Bear Creek has a glock compatible 10mm AR.

They have many of the ones for popular guns at Amazon. Bought my last one from Amazon and had it in like 3 days.

Looks like its going to be the Henry big boy all weather in 357 mag / 38 special for new lever gun. Woohoo. really debated between the 357 / 38 and the 44 mag / special. I dont own a 357 handgun but do have a 44 mag and thought it might be nice to have something that worked in both revolver and rifle.

If you haven't had one before you will love it. Its most comfortable way to carry in the field. Its always easy to reach no matter what your doing.

Really appreciate your knowledge and honest input Kenk . It sounds like a great, tough and fun gun to shoot. I would prefer something that shoots tighter groups like 1" to 1 1/2"  groups at 30 yards. Anything much over that would probably not make me happy in a rifle. I've got a 9mm AR that shoots about 2" and it frustrates me sometimes.

Nice, what size group would you say is typical at say 30 yards with it ?
#11
Sounds good and tough. Yes be nice if it took glock mags or offered in a 15 or 20 round mags for it.
#12
Kenk, How accurate is it? say 25 to 50 yards? I saw online a few comments about it not being real accurate why im asking.

Thanks Graybeard I value your opinion. I'm thinking either the all weather or case hardened models. I agree that something like a cast coated 38 for small game should work well enough. I like the Idea of having same caliber in handgun and carbine but it just isnt an option for a 10mm lever unless i had one made. $$$  I read a few threads here about the High point 10mm semi auto but also heard that it wasn't the most accurate rifle and that's important to me. 357/38 seems to be the sweet spot for what I'm looking for and its purpose. I could just keep using my savage 24 but for whatever reason I'm just itching for a new lever gun. Ive no experience with Rossi or Taylors etc.  yes like you im a half cock fan too in lever guns. when i was little I grew up carrying a 94 22 Lr on traplines or following around my mom n dad. Mom gave me the 94 when i was 10 and Dad gave me a 870 wingmaster when i turned 12.

Now you guys are starting to make me consider passing on getting a lever gun and getting a High point 10mm.

I like that they also sell the Holsters separately or with the Harness. That way if ya want to use the same harness for multiple guns you can.  Ive been hard on mine and they have held up perfectly in all kinds of conditions wearing it 24-7 for days at a time. great rig.
