Bought a Henry Model X in 45-70 for bear defense in Alaska. Maybe I'll hunt elk with it now and then in Oregon.
I always buy stainless wherever possible as I am in the PNW... But I got tired of looking for a reasonably priced and avaliable rifle of this lever caliber in stainless.
Anyone tested the blueing quality on Henry? Will this thing hold up to day after day use in the weather? I'll provide what care I can, but it's unreasonable for full dissassembly every evening. Think the blueing holds up well? Anyone who actually knows?
