Henry Rifles - Beautiful Free Catalog

You’ve probably heard of Henry Rifles. They’ve been around since 1862 making some of the finest, smoothest lever action rifles in the industry.  But they haven’t rested on their laurels!  They continue to turn out product after product that is award winning and finely tuned.

We’re proud to feature Henry Rifles as our primary site sponsor. They have continued to faithfully support us to bring you some great content and the love of ground squirrel and varmint hunting.

Henry puts out a beautiful catalog of their products. In it you’ll read the colorful history of the company and the details of all their rifles and accessories that they sell.  Big, two-page spreads with detailed photos of all their rifles – from the original lever actions in all calibers to the Henry Big Boy, Golden Boy series, Frontier series, and all the bolt action series.  They even have the U.S. Survival AR-7 .22 LR that is really handy.

But don’t forget about the Henry Varmint Express .17 HMR.  One of the hotest, sweetest, smoothest lever action .17 HMR, squirrel-killin’ machines around. I’m just about to order mine.

I urge you to get the catalog. It’s free.  And it’s tempting.  As a visitor to this website, Henry will gladly send one out to you.  Henry sponsors us because they know our readers enjoy hunting, shooting and fine guns.

So – do it now.  Click HERE to get your catalog.

Even if you never buy a Henry, you’ll want to keep this catalog around to read and to refer to.  It’s a genuine piece of American history.  History that seems to be fading daily.

We mentioned in an earlier post that the BSA Sweet 17 3-12×40 Scope is on sale at Cabelas for only $64.99 (normally sell for about $129).  For this kind of money you really can’t go wrong!

The BSA Sweet 17 is specifically designed for the .17 HMR and is calibrated and optimized for .17 HMR compensation.

I’m using one on a new Savage .17 HMR that I’m building up now.

I suggest you get yours pretty quick if you’re thinking about it.  They’ve been on sale for over a week now and the price is too sweet to pass up!

Click here: BSA Sweet 17 or on the picture below to make sure the Sweet 17 3-12 x 40 is still on sale.

Ammo: Hornady .17 HMR ballistic tip

This was taken over a two day period where the problem was not solved completely, but certainly addressed… The dead land in the film use to be rows of trees, and the piles of limb and branches in the video are whats left of the trees. The green is the neighboring alfalfa which they are severely threatening…

I’m waiting for the Savage .17 HMR to go on sale at my local stores or Cabelas.   I picked the Savage .17 HMR due to the cost/performance/accuracy and overall value.  It’s really hard to beat.

I found the BSA Sweet 17  3-12 x 40 scope on sale at Cabelas online for $49.95 (hurry – there’s still some left). This scope is normally $129 – $149. I know the BSA Sweet 17 isn’t preferred by a few marksmen but I have found it to be very adequate for 100 – 150 yds for varmints.

I’ll keep this rig in my truck when traveling around the back roads in rural Nebraska. There’s plenty of opportunities here, especially in the West.

Oh – gotta put a camera mount on it, too. I wanna share the fun through recording videos (only the hits, of course!).

Stay tuned….I’ll post the build up as I go.

Shoot straight – stay safe.

If we all give it a thumbs up, then when new hunters come to read the site, including this post, they might wander over to the forums and give us some new blood….

All of these squirrels were shot using my Savage 17hmr accutrigger, with Hornady 17gr ballistic tip bullets. On a side note, there’s nothing like having a video camera mounted on your rifle to show you when you jerk the trigger.
