Henry H015223 Single Shot .223 Rem Rifle

Henry H015223 Single-Shot Rifle

The Henry H015223 represents a return to rifle fundamentals—a straightforward, dependable single-shot design chambered in .223 Rem that appeals to both precision shooters and those who value simplicity and reliability.

Design and Construction

This rifle features a traditional falling-block action with a matte-blued steel frame and a 22-inch round barrel. The American walnut stock incorporates a comfortable curved pistol grip and is fitted with a solid rubber recoil pad for shooter comfort during extended shooting sessions.

Safety and Handling

The H015223 employs an ingenious safety system without an external manual safety lever. Instead, it uses a rebounding hammer that cannot contact the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pressed. An interlock mechanism prevents the barrel from opening when the hammer is cocked and prevents the barrel from closing if the hammer is cocked while open. This design ensures safe, reliable operation in the field.

Sighting Options

The rifle comes equipped with fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sights and a brass-beaded front sight for quick target acquisition. For those preferring modern optics, the receiver is drilled and tapped for a Weaver 82 scope mount, allowing easy installation of your preferred glass.
