The Henry Yellow Boy in .22 mag has a retail cost of $495.00, plus shipping.
The Henry rifles are all American made, and of the highest quality. You can get them up to .44 mag, .45 Long Colt, and 30-30 caliber.
I have considered getting the .45 Long Colt, as it can be loaded to higher fps/fpe than the .44 magnum. I didn’t realize that, but the case is longer than the .44 case. The .45 Long Colt is good for large North American game up to 100 to 150 yards. Again, I didn’t realize a pistol cartridge was capable of that, but with a long barrel and the right load, these babies can stop just about anything on four wheels. They have a pic of a guy that dropped a full grown American buffalo at 75 yards with the .44 magnum.
If you visit their website, they have soem interesting pics and info on their products. A lever gun isn’t for everyone, but these aren’t your great grandfather’s Yellow Boy!

Hoot 😯
You got a Deal on that gun.
A 22 magnum will kill anything on the north American continent.
as long as you are at point black range with the muzzle touching the skull. don’t think i would want to take on a brown bear while crawling through the alders on the Ak. peninsula( or even a moose in the same terrain). hell, i felt under gunned with a .338 win mag when the visibility dropped to 5 feet. that will be a fun gun at a great price for what a .22 mag is suitable for.
Yeah, I wouldn’t want to take on a Lesser Spotter Crack Addict with one, that’s for sure.
It is intended for small and medium game, I found a really good bullet, 33 grn. Remington v max boatail, everyone on the net are raving how good they are. I shot the gun today to check function and no problem, also at close range (17 yrds.) off hand, shot a 5 shot group in a 1in. target. When I get the scope I should be able to get an inch at 100 yards.

I love anything .22 Mag. It’s very underrated, especially by those who have never shot anything with it!
You are going to have a lot of fun with that rifle. 🙂
I like it! 😎
Ive got an old 94/22mag Winchester levergun, and its a tackdriver damn thing outshoots most of my bolt rimfires.
I orderred a special scope mount for it already, will shoot it tomarrow, hopefully, my eyes are not very good past 35 yards if that.
Well, I’m no authority on those but I’d be damn happy to have that gun for $275!
I’ll give you $280 plus postage… 🙂
Well done.
