Detailed Features 

The lever mechanism cycles quickly and the action is notably smooth for a rimfire at this price point. Adjustable rear sights and a hooded front sight let you dial in point of impact without any tools. At 5.25 lbs and 36.5 inches, it handles comfortably for smaller-framed shooters and carries well on long outings. The ability to shoot .22 Short through .22 LR means you can use whatever's available without swapping guns. 
 

Usage 

A good fit for small game hunting, range plinking, or introducing new shooters to the lever-action format. The manageable recoil and tube magazine capacity make extended sessions easy.

The H001 consistently draws positive feedback for its smooth lever action and walnut stock. Owners frequently mention quick follow-up shots and comfortable handling as standout traits. The 21-round capacity in .22 Short and the classic wood-and-blued aesthetic appeal to traditionalists.

On the downside, some find the 5.25 lb weight on the heavier side for a rimfire, and a few note that the price is slightly above other entry-level options in the category. Most shooters consider the quality worth it, but buyers on a tight budget occasionally look elsewhere.

I recently picked up the Henry Model H001 in .22 LR, and from the moment I unboxed it, I knew I was in for a treat. It’s a beautifully simple rifle, nothing fancy, but that’s part of its charm. Chambered for .22 short, long, and long rifle, I plan to stick with .22 LR for easy, fun range days. The lever action is unbelievably smooth for the price, I couldn’t believe how cleanly it cycles. Loading it up for the first time, I was able to fit 15 rounds in the tube, and the iron sights did the job well. I had a few bullseyes at 25 yards, even when shooting quickly and freehand. While the rear sight sits a bit high and will need some adjusting, this little rifle is an absolute blast. It’s lightweight, easy to handle, and perfect for plinking or teaching new shooters. The best part? It’s just so much fun! Definitely one of those rifles you’ll find excuses to take out every chance you get.
