Watching that rifle rack his frame, even with the Limbsaver, which he claimed was to make the LOP longer ;) it doesn't appear that it was any kinder than my bolt action. He sure is adept at plugging as many manufacturers as he can but I guess that's a necessity on the Tube. I suspect that if I had been shooting standing, offhand, that the recoil would have been more manageable, as opposed to shooting BR.

Were you making a funny? I know you have a single shot.

Cut the barrel to 16" and thread it....would be great for sub-sonics in a short package.....

Recoil would be very pleasant ....Ha Ha....

The recoil on the single shot seems less. Maybe due to the weight of the barrel. Maybe that Henry is a little lighter. But naw. I wasn’t being sarcastic this time. I love Henry rifles. I finally bought my first one a couple years ago. It’s a pump action 22 Magnum (WMR) with an octagonal barrel. It’s a sweet little rifle.
