There is something satisfying about hunting with a break-action rifle. You get one round, you make it count, and there is nothing on the gun that does not need to be there. Henry's Single Shot in .450 Bushmaster takes that old-school approach and pairs it with a straight-wall cartridge that hits like a freight train inside 200 yards. Big hogs, heavy-bodied whitetails, even black bear are all well within this cartridge's wheelhouse, and the simple locking-lever action means loading and unloading takes seconds.
Henry does not treat this rifle like a budget afterthought, and it shows the moment you pick it up. The 22-inch round barrel and receiver wear a deep blued steel finish, and the stock is real American walnut with a curved pistol-grip wrist that settles naturally into your hands. A solid black rubber recoil pad takes the edge off the .450's push, which you will appreciate because this cartridge is no soft shooter. Sling swivel studs come installed from the factory, so it is ready for a strap before your first hunt. At 37.5 inches overall and under 7 pounds, it carries easily through thick timber and slips in and out of a blind without snagging.
Out of the box you get a brass bead up front and a fully adjustable folding leaf rear, which is a proven setup for woods ranges. When you are ready for glass, the receiver is drilled and tapped for a Weaver 82-style base, and a low-power scope really lets the .450 Bushmaster stretch its legs. The 1:20 twist barrel stabilizes the common 250 and 260 grain loads well, so finding ammo it likes is not a chore.
Instead of a manual safety, Henry uses a rebounding hammer that cannot reach the firing pin without a deliberate trigger pull, plus an interlock system that governs when the barrel can open or close relative to hammer position. It is a smart, simple arrangement that suits the rifle's character. For the hunter who values shot placement over follow-up shots, this one is hard to beat.
Yes. The receiver comes drilled and tapped for a Weaver 82-style base, so mounting a scope is a quick job. A lot of owners run a low-power variable or a red dot on these, which suits the .450 Bushmaster's practical range nicely. The base and rings are sold separately.
Henry uses a rebounding hammer instead of a traditional switch. The hammer physically cannot contact the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pulled, and an interlock system keeps the barrel from opening while the hammer is cocked. It is a simple, proven arrangement common on quality break-action guns.
It is a hard-hitting straight-wall cartridge that shines on deer, hogs, and black bear at woods ranges, generally inside 200 yards or so. The 22-inch barrel wrings solid velocity out of the round, and the 1:20 twist handles the popular 250 and 260 grain loads well. Paired with a single shot action, it rewards careful shot placement.
It has a firm push, no way around that with a big-bore cartridge in a rifle under 7 pounds. The factory black rubber recoil pad and the walnut stock's shape help soak up a good amount of it. For a hunting rifle you fire a handful of times per outing, most folks find it very manageable.
