The Henry H9 Big Boy Brass Side Gate lever-action rifle in .30-30 Winchester (Henry Repeating Arms part no. H009BG) pairs a polished hardened brass receiver with a blued steel octagon barrel. Henry adds a side loading gate to the tubular magazine, so you can top off without taking the rifle off your shoulder, and the removable magazine tube is still there for safe unloading. A semi-buckhorn rear sight, a brass bead front sight and an American walnut stock with a polished brass barrel band complete the traditional look. It is aimed at whitetail hunters and collectors who want a classic .30-30 with real brass on it.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is .30-30 Winchester, the long-time whitetail cartridge for brush and timber hunting.
• The barrel is a 20-inch octagon blued steel tube with a 1:12 rate of twist, a classic profile that adds weight forward for a steadier hold.
• The receiver is polished hardened brass, which gives the rifle its signature look.
• A side loading gate works alongside the removable magazine tube, so you can top off in the field or unload safely.
• Overall length is 39 inches, a standard lever-rifle length that handles well in thick cover.
• Weight is 8.30 pounds, which adds steadiness at the shot at the cost of a little carry weight.
