Brass and blued steel give the Henry Single Shot a look all its own. This rifle is chambered in .357 Magnum, which also accepts .38 Special, and it fires one round at a time.

Single shots reward careful shooting. A hunter learns to make the first shot count, and a new shooter learns safe habits without a loaded tube. It is a light rifle for a day in the timber, and the brass receiver stays handsome with a little polish.

Plenty of ranchers like this kind of rifle for the pickup, since it is simple to clean and easy to carry. Mild .38 loads will suit a younger shooter, while .357 loads handle coyotes and hogs at close range. Keep it oiled and it will serve a lifetime. Keep ear and eye protection handy for the first outing, whatever the caliber.

Transfer is through a licensed dealer, not to your home. Name your FFL at checkout and the background check happens there. Give the photos a slow look at full size; they show finish and wear better than any paragraph can.
