Has Henry discontinued their single shot rifles? I can’t seem to find one anywhere not even on buds gun shop nor gunbroker.com
He wants a single shot in 308 anyways.
He can have it all to himself. I have dealt with enough single shots to know that putting anything that kicks at all in them is not worth it. Too light and the action soaks up nothing. I'll spend the extra money and calories to tote a semi-auto that weighs twice as much.
A .308 doesn’t kick. In fact I mostly deer hunt with a 45-70 H&R single shot and even it doesn’t kick that bad.He wants a single shot in 308 anyways.

In addition to the previously mentioned Long Ranger (223 & 308), Henry has single shot models in 44 Mag, 223, 308, 243 & 45-70. Quote affordable as well.Deer_Hunter88 - I doubt if Henry will make a lever action.308 Win lever action. They'll get sued the first time some bozo loads it with pointy bullets and it has a magazine explosion. The French overcame this problem in the tubular magazine Lebel with a rimmed cartridge that was naturally inclined to point downwards. The pointed bullet rested not against the primer of the cartridge ahead of it but against its rim. The Savage 99 managed pointy bullets with a rotary and later detachable box magazine.
Now, single shots like what you want are very doable. Write them and suggest it.
