Just saw this today. It appears Henry is going to produce a 41 mag lever action. Lipsey's has them listed.

That's interesting, also a 223,243 and a 308. Ronnie

Thank you for the link.
In part of their description for the big boy, they're referring to a recoil pad however it is only only for 3 calibers, the 41 mag isn't included, i'm thinking it will be a very short run and possibly late in the year but this is only a wild guess.
It says ....To make sure the steel Big Boy stays easy on the shoulder in any of its three calibers, the .357 Magnum/.38 Special, .44 Magnum/.44 Special, and .45 Colt; we’ve added a ventilated rubber recoil pad.

I am looking at a glossy Henry Rifle catalog as I type this and it shows the 41 mag Big Boy Steel. BTW, the catalog is one of the nicest ones I've seen in a long time - lots of nice large photos...

...looks like the 20" will be in the lineup but not the 16.5"...I would have really liked a Trapper.
This will probably put the hurt on Marlin 1894/.41 prices which start at $1200 and work their way up...

Marlington has been talking about another run of .41s for two years...who knows if it will ever happen.
Emailed Henry and thanked them for making their .41...unfortunately at this time only the 20" will be available. I was in a big shop last week and handled a .44 Magnum 20" and a .45 Colt 16.5"...really liked the balance on the 16.5....

The 20" guns are now on the market....sooner than I expected.

I just bought one and it is very nicely done. It feeds semiwadcutters as easily as round nose bullets.

I have one on the way, hope to receive it in a day or two. Wanted a Marlin, but not willing to pay the tariff. All of the Henry rifles that I have handled seem to be put together well.

What are the real world prices on these? I have several Marlins, of course I bought before they became so desirable.

I picked up my rifle today. I gotta say, it is a very nice rifle! I have a few Marlins and the quality of the Henry is right up there. I'm happy I pulled the trigger on one of these.
