Overview
The Henry H015-4570 is a one-shot .45-70 hunting rifle built around a steel break action. The 22-inch barrel and 6.83-pound weight keep it lighter than most lever guns while leaving enough barrel for a conventional rifle balance. A walnut pistol-grip stock, rubber recoil pad, rebounding hammer, and transfer-bar safety complete the simple field layout.
The folding rear sight and brass-bead front sight are usable out of the box. The receiver is also drilled and tapped for a Weaver 82 base, but the rifle does not include an optics rail. The single-shot action makes the first shot count and offers no immediate follow-up, which is the central tradeoff against a tubular-magazine lever action.
