mooboy76 4 Report post Posted September 21, 2010 I'm thinking that in the spring I'll pick up an H&R Handi-Rifle in 45/70, maybe even the 'Handi-Grip' style. Has anyone here used these rifles? How did you like them? Quote CSSA Member CCFR Member Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unbedable 16 Report post Posted September 23, 2010 That's what I was shooting last year and probably this year. Its short and easy to take in the truck and manuvre in the bush, but a little on the heavy side. The solid pipe though reduces alot of kick. I dont' really feel my 30/06. Its pretty solid so the scope I have on doesn't budge and its shoots pretty straight for me and my ability. One of the downfalls I dont' like is it only has an extractor and not ejector, so therefore if you have gloves on or whatnot it may be hard to take the casing out for a follow up shot. Just don't miss Hope this helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mooboy76 4 Report post Posted September 24, 2010 Thanks that helps a lot. Did you get the standard wood stock or the Handi-Grip? Where did you pick yours up? I've got lots of time to track one down, but it's good to know where to look. I wonder if the extractors can be replaced/switched with ejectors like you can with some shotguns, or maybe they can be adjusted.
