There's something about a single-shot .45-70 that strips hunting back down to what matters. The Henry H15 (H015B-4570) is a break-action rifle built around that idea, with a polished hardened brass receiver, a 22-inch round blued steel barrel, and genuine American walnut furniture capped off with a brass buttplate. At 7 pounds and 37.5 inches overall, it carries easily through timber and points naturally when a buck steps out and you only get one chance to make it count.
The locking lever sits on top of the frame behind the hammer spur, and Henry designed it to pivot either left or right to break the action open, so left-handed hunters get the same easy operation as everyone else. There's no external manual safety to fumble with. Instead, a rebounding hammer keeps the firing pin untouched unless the trigger is deliberately pulled, and an interlock system prevents the barrel from opening with the hammer cocked. It's a simple, well-thought-out setup that rewards deliberate handling. The extractor lifts the spent case for you to pluck out by hand, which handloaders will appreciate since your brass never ends up in the leaves.
Out of the box you get a fully adjustable folding leaf rear sight matched to a brass bead up front, a combination that suits woods ranges just fine. Prefer glass? The receiver comes drilled and tapped for a Weaver 82 mount, so adding a scope is a quick job. The 1:20 twist barrel stabilizes the full spread of .45-70 Government loads, from mild trapdoor-pressure lead bullets to stout modern hunting ammo, making this rifle a legitimate choice for deer, hogs, black bear, and even elk or moose at woods distances.
Henry didn't build this as a budget gun that happens to hold one round. Fit and finish are on par with their lever guns, sling swivel studs come standard, and the straight English wrist gives it a clean, classic profile. For hunters who like the discipline of a single round on board, or anyone who just appreciates a handsome brass and walnut rifle, the H15 is a hard one to put down.
Yes. The receiver comes drilled and tapped for a Weaver 82 mount, so adding a base and rings is a straightforward job. The folding leaf rear sight also folds down out of the way, keeping your sight picture clean once glass is on top. Plenty of owners run low-power scopes for hunting and keep the irons as a backup.
There's no external manual safety on this rifle. Instead, it uses a rebounding hammer that can't contact the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pulled, plus an interlock that keeps the barrel from opening while the hammer is cocked. It's a proven system that keeps the lines of the rifle clean and the operation simple.
Henry builds its single shots to the same standards as its centerfire lever guns, and the break action handles the full range of factory .45-70 Government ammunition. The 1:20 twist barrel stabilizes everything from light lead loads to heavy modern hunting bullets. Just be aware that stout .45-70 loads in a 7-pound rifle produce noticeable recoil, so pick your load with that in mind.
No, it uses a non-ejecting extractor. When you break the action open, the extractor lifts the fired case out of the chamber just enough to pull it free by hand. Handloaders tend to prefer this setup since brass never goes flying into the brush.
