Indy,

I will be shooting it; but not a whole lot. As nice as they are, the Henry isn't very competitive.

Cost was under a grand - and that's all the hint I'm gonna give.

I had talked with him at a match in early Nov & he said it would still be a couple weeks before he'd get to it. He finished it just before Christmas. So.................. ???? I have no idea.

Jib,

I paid deposit and filled out the order sheet in Sept 2011, I gave him the rifle in Oct 2012. If you had scheduled it back then, you'd either have it now, or it would be soon.
