Description
There is something about an octagon barrel on a lever gun that just looks right, and the Henry H1 Frontier Carbine leans into that old-school style without giving up an ounce of practicality. This one is chambered in .22 WMR, which steps well past standard .22 LR in velocity and energy, pushing 40 grain bullets close to 2,000 feet per second. That gives you a real tool for coyotes, foxes, raccoons, and pest control out to 125 yards or so, while still being pleasant enough to burn through a box of ammo on tin cans all afternoon.
Why the Frontier Carbine Handles So Well
The 16.5 inch barrel keeps overall length to a tidy 34.5 inches and total weight right around 6 pounds, so it swings fast, rides comfortably in a truck or on a four wheeler, and points naturally for offhand shots. The tubular magazine holds 10 rounds of .22 Magnum, loaded through the classic removable inner tube. Up top you get a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with a diamond insert and a bright brass bead up front, a sight combo that is quick to pick up and easy to dial in. If you would rather run glass, the receiver is grooved for 3/8 inch ringmounts, and a low powered scope turns this into a genuinely capable small game rifle.
Classic Henry Feel, Magnum Punch
Henry actions have earned their reputation for being slick right out of the box, and this carbine is no exception. The lever cycles smoothly with a short, positive throw, and the oversized large loop gives you extra room for gloved hands or just a little more leverage when you are running it fast. The straight grip American walnut stock and blackened receiver give it a clean, traditional look that stands out in a rack full of black polymer.
A Frontier Carbine That Earns Its Keep
Between the magnum chambering, the handy carbine length, and the fit and finish Henry is known for, this is the kind of rifle that ends up going along on every walk in the woods. It works as a trapline gun, a ranch companion, or simply the lever gun you have always wanted with a little more thump behind it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mount a scope on the Henry H1 Frontier Carbine?
Yes. The receiver comes grooved with a 3/8 inch dovetail, so it accepts standard rimfire ringmounts made for 3/8 inch grooves. A compact 2-7x or fixed 4x scope pairs nicely with the carbine's size and the practical range of the .22 WMR cartridge. No drilling or gunsmithing needed.
How do you load the Frontier Carbine's magazine?
It uses Henry's classic tubular magazine that loads through a removable inner brass tube. You pull the inner tube partway out, drop rounds into the loading port, then reinsert the tube to put spring tension on the column. It holds 10 rounds of .22 WMR and is simple to run once you have done it a couple times.
Will this rifle also shoot .22 LR ammo?
No, this model is chambered specifically for .22 WMR, also called .22 Magnum, and it should only be fed that cartridge. The .22 WMR case is longer and wider than .22 LR, so the two are not interchangeable. If you want the standard rimfire chambering, Henry offers the Frontier Carbine in a separate .22 S/L/LR version.
What is the large loop lever for on the H1 Frontier Carbine?
The oversized loop gives your hand more room, which is handy if you shoot with gloves in cold weather or just prefer extra clearance when cycling the action quickly. It also adds a nice touch of classic Western character to the rifle. Function aside, it is one of the details that makes this model stand out from the standard lever versions.
