Since the earliest days of American colonization, through the inevitable expansion of the Frontier driven westward by explorers, adventurers, and settlers, and on to modern times, the rifle has played a vital role in a part of life as old as mankind himself. Hunting to survive made it possible for Daniel Boone to become a legendary figure in blazing his Wilderness Road through the Cumberland Gap across the Appalachians into Kentucky in 1775, Lewis & Clark to travel 8,000 miles primarily on foot through unknown territories in 1804, for John Wesley Powell's 1869 expedition mapping the Colorado River as the first non-natives to travel through the Grand Canyon, for the small homestead farmers of the great Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889 to establish and build on their claims, and for countless men to feed their families through the dark days of the Great Depression of the 1930s. Regardless of wealth or social status, hunting is an American tradition shared by all levels of society. Henry Repeating Arms tips a hat to that tradition in these brass-framed, side-loading Wildlife editions. For today's hunter who likes a campfire showpiece that still delivers in the woods, big-bore hunters tracking larger can game step up to four rounds of the hard-hitting .45-70 bulldozers stored under the H010BGWL's 22" octagon barrel. Where more steam is needed, the .45-70 undeniably provides it, and the engraving, black-filled to bring out detail as it is on both brass Wildlife Editions, reflects that with American vine scroll and braided border again, surrounding on the right side a detailed depiction of a moose head in a circular setting, and on the left, a bear in an oval outline. This model also adds a larger lever loop for gloved use to the package. Travel with style on your next hunt, and take Henry with you.
