Overview

The Henry H1 Western Frontier Rifle is a lever-action repeater designed for those who value both form and function. Its .22 caliber compatibility allows shooters to utilize standard velocity, high velocity, or hyper velocity ammunition, as well as .22 Magnum rounds for increased energy on target. The rifle features a 20-inch blued steel barrel with a 1:16 twist rate, optimized for stabilizing common .22 projectiles. The tubular magazine holds 15 rounds of .22 LR or 11 rounds of .22 Magnum, providing ample capacity for sustained shooting sessions without frequent reloading. The rifle’s overall length of 38.5 inches and weight of 6.5 pounds make it easily maneuverable in brush or at the range.

Features & Specs

The Henry H1 Western Frontier Rifle is defined by its combination of classic lever-action mechanics and modern manufacturing tolerances.

The barrel features a 1:16 twist rate and is threaded in 1/2×28 at the muzzle for suppressor or muzzle device attachment. The rifle’s exposed hammer provides visual cocking status and allows for manual lowering for safe decocking. The trigger is a single-stage design with a factory pull weight of approximately 4.5 pounds, offering a clean break without excessive overtravel.

Who It’s For

This rifle is suited for shooters who require a single platform capable of handling multiple .22 rimfire cartridges. It is appropriate for small-game hunters targeting rabbits, squirrels, or similar quarry, as well as for target shooters who need a reliable trainer for larger-caliber lever actions. The rifle’s manageable recoil and light weight make it accessible to new shooters learning marksmanship fundamentals, while its adjustable sights and threaded barrel appeal to experienced users who want to attach optics or suppressors. The Henry H1 Western Frontier Rifle is also a practical choice for those maintaining a rimfire gun for pest control or property management, given its ability to cycle .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 Long Rifle ammunition without adjustment.

• Ideal for small-game hunting, target practice, and recreational plinking
