The Henry Single Shot Steel is a walnut-stocked break-action .350 Legend built for deer hunting in straight-wall seasons. It has an MSRP of $625. A brass bead front sight and a fully adjustable folding leaf rear are fitted, so the rifle can be zeroed and hunted with nothing bought.

There is no manual safety at all. Henry uses a rebounding hammer that cannot reach the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled, with an interlock that will not let the barrel open while the hammer is cocked or close while it is cocked and open. The locking lever sits on top of the frame behind the hammer spur and pivots either left or right, which works the same for a left-handed shooter. Swivel studs are fitted, length of pull is a fixed 14 inches, and the receiver is drilled and tapped with the rear sight folding flat for a low scope mount.

If you're cross-shopping, a used Mossberg Patriot Synthetic has the same barrel length and twist with a four-round magazine and scope bases already fitted, 0.69 lbs lighter. The Winchester XPR has an MSRP of $659.99 and brings a detachable magazine for roughly the same money. The Henry holds one round against their four, and it comes with walnut, iron sights and an action that can be proved empty from across the room.
