Henry H015308 Single Shot .308 Win Rifle

Henry H015308 Single Shot Rifle

The Henry H015308 represents a return to rifle fundamentals—a purpose-built, no-nonsense single-shot chambered in .308 Winchester. This is a rifle for the shooter who values accuracy, reliability, and honest craftsmanship over magazine capacity.

Design and Construction

The action is elegantly simple: a falling-block mechanism with a rebounding hammer that cannot contact the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pressed. An interlock system 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 eliminates the need for an external safety while ensuring reliable operation.

The receiver is finished in matte blued steel, paired with a pistol-grip American walnut stock. The curved grip provides natural hand positioning, while a solid rubber recoil pad manages the .308's modest but noticeable recoil.
