There's something refreshing about a rifle that gives you one round and expects you to use it well. The Henry H015-223 is a break-action single shot chambered in .223 Rem/5.56 NATO, built around a 22-inch round blued steel barrel with a 1:9 twist that stabilizes a wide range of bullet weights. At 37.5 inches overall and a hair over 7 pounds, it carries easily through the backcountry and points quickly when a coyote steps out where you didn't expect one. Henry didn't treat this like a budget project either. The furniture is real American walnut with a curved pistol grip wrist, checkering-free clean lines, sling swivel studs, and a solid rubber recoil pad.
The locking lever sits on top of the frame behind the hammer, and it pivots either left or right to break the action open, which is a genuinely thoughtful detail for left-handed hunters. Instead of a manual safety, the rifle uses a rebounding hammer that stays off the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pulled, plus an interlock that keeps the barrel from opening with the hammer cocked. When you break it open, the extractor lifts the spent case out of the chamber for easy removal by hand rather than flinging brass into the weeds, which handloaders will appreciate since .223 cases are worth saving.
Out of the box you get a fully adjustable folding leaf rear sight paired with a brass bead front, the same setup Henry runs on its lever guns. The barrel is also drilled and tapped for a Weaver 82 style base, so adding a scope for longer varmint work is simple. Independent range testing on this exact model has produced groups under an inch at 100 yards with quality factory ammo, which is impressive shooting from a traditional single shot.
This rifle makes a great first centerfire for a young hunter, a lightweight walking varminter, or a satisfying challenge gun for experienced hunters who like keeping things simple. One barrel, one round, one clean shot.
Yes. The barrel is drilled and tapped to accept a Weaver 82 style scope base, which is sold separately. A nice bonus is that the folding leaf rear sight can stay in place when you install a base. If you scope it, a hammer extension is a worthwhile add-on so you can reach the hammer comfortably under the optic.
No, and it doesn't need one in the traditional sense. It uses a rebounding hammer that cannot contact the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pulled, plus an interlock that prevents the barrel from opening while the hammer is cocked. It's a simple, time-proven system that keeps the rifle safe to carry in the field.
It's one of the better options out there for lefties. The locking lever behind the hammer pivots either left or right to break the action open, so it works the same from either shoulder. With no ejection port or side-mounted controls, the whole rifle is essentially ambidextrous.
Very accurate for a traditional break-action rifle. Published range testing of this model has shown consistent groups under three quarters of an inch at 100 yards with quality factory loads, with the best groups near half an inch. The 1:9 twist 22-inch barrel handles common bullet weights from light varmint loads up through heavier hunting bullets.
