I have the 44 mag version and like it . I may pick up one of the 45-70’s before fall or may go to the all weather 45-70. I have heard some concerns that some 45-70 single shot stocks crack, but were replaced by the factory . Fit and finish is everything one could hope for. Accuracy of my Henry rifles is not as tight as my Marlin rifles but grandson took his first buck last fall over 200 yds with the single shot Henry 44 mag and he’s 8. Owning a single shot makes you learn to aim.
