Description
Henry built its reputation on the Classic Lever Action .22, and the H1 Large Loop version takes that same rifle and adds the one upgrade cold-weather hunters and folks with bigger hands ask for most. The oversized lever gives you plenty of room to run the action with winter gloves on, and it adds a bit of that Western saddle-gun character while it's at it. Everything else is the formula that made this the best-selling .22 lever gun around: a genuine American walnut straight-grip stock, a blued 18.5-inch round barrel, and an action so slick that first-timers tend to cycle it a few extra times just because it feels good.
Feeding the H1 Classic Large Loop
The tubular magazine holds 15 rounds of .22 LR, and since it's chambered for .22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle, you can feed it 17 Longs or 21 Shorts if that's what you've got on the shelf. That flexibility makes it a great trainer for new marksmen, since quiet Shorts keep things gentle while they learn the fundamentals. Loading through the brass tube is simple, and the quarter-cock safety position keeps things old school without any crossbolt hardware cluttering up the receiver.
Sights and Scope Options on the Large Loop Henry
Out of the box you get a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight paired with a hooded blade up front, a setup that's quick to pick up on squirrels and tin cans alike. If your eyes prefer glass, the receiver comes grooved at 3/8 inch, so adding a rimfire scope with standard ring mounts takes just a few minutes and no gunsmithing.
Why the H1 Classic Earns a Spot in the Safe
At 5.25 pounds and 36.5 inches overall, this rifle carries all day without complaint, and the 14-inch length of pull fits most adults comfortably. It's the kind of .22 that gets handed down rather than traded in, equally at home teaching a kid to shoot, thinning out pests around the property, or just burning through a brick of ammo on a Saturday. Made in America and backed by Henry's well-known customer service, it's a rifle you buy once and keep forever.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mount a scope on the Henry H1 Classic Large Loop?
Yes. The receiver has a 3/8-inch groove machined right into it, so any standard 3/8-inch rimfire ring mounts will clamp on without drilling or tapping. Plenty of owners run a compact rimfire scope while keeping the semi-buckhorn irons as a backup.
What ammo does the H1 Classic Large Loop shoot?
It's chambered for .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 Long Rifle, all fed through the same tubular magazine. Capacity changes with cartridge length: 15 rounds of LR, 17 Longs, or 21 Shorts. That makes it handy for everything from quiet backyard pest control with Shorts to small game hunting with LR.
What's the point of the large loop lever?
The oversized loop gives your hand extra clearance, which is a real benefit if you wear gloves in cold weather or just have larger hands. It also cycles a little more naturally when you're working the action quickly. Beyond function, it gives the rifle that classic Western carbine look a lot of folks love.
Does this Henry use a removable magazine?
No, it feeds from a tubular magazine under the barrel, which is traditional for this style of rifle. You load by pulling the inner brass tube, dropping rounds into the loading port, and sliding the tube back in. It's a simple system that's been reliable on Henry lever guns for decades.
