I have had my Henry for over 6 years and I have gotten a few rabits as well as a whole lot of paper targets I have tryed a scope and found it more troublesome I like the peep sight it has and it is pretty dang accurate as is but you need to practice , practice , practice with it as we all know if it isnt used it is lost to us mine has never failed me I use CCI 22 hollow pint mini mags it has enough power to work the action and is a clean burning ammo as we all know out in the field it isnt easy to maintain a perfectly clean weapon I dont care who you are I been doing suvival works for well over 25 years form the mountains to the sea side and I use alot of muzzle loaders but I have ALWAYS had my little Henry stuck in the back of my pack ....and yes Henry beats Charter Arms as well as Armalight in dependability but they are a bit hard to find as guys dont like giving them up ( like me )
