I finally decided that after about 15 years, sitting idle in the shadows of my gun safe, that it's time to dust off my ole Henry. Found about 25 rounds of old ammo I had stashed away and headed to the gravel pit with a target and a couple beer cans, full to start with... After a couple 2 shot groups and emptying the beer cans, fired 5 shots off hand and had a base ball sized group just a hair low at 50yds. 5 more rounds later and the empty cans were blown to bits. Not bad for old ammo and not being out of the safe for so long.
So my question... What load are skirmishes using in a 45LC Henry these days? The old loads I had were just 30gr. Goex 3f with a 250gr pre lubed cowboy bullet. Carrol brand bullet I think. Which I always liked because I didn't have to mess with another mould or mixing types of lead.
