Henry H005RMG Mini Bolt Youth 22 S/L/LR 1rd 16.25" Matte Stainless Steel Barrel, Matte Drilled & Tapped Stainless Steel Receiver, Muddy Girl Fixed w/Pistol Grip Synthetic Stock, Right Hand

The Henry H005RMG Mini Bolt Youth .22 is a single-shot bolt-action rifle purpose-built to teach young shooters the fundamentals of safe, accurate marksmanship. At just 3.25 lbs. with an 11.5" length of pull, it's sized for smaller frames and built light enough for an all-day session at the range or in the field. This isn't a scaled-down toy—it's a real rifle with real controls and real feedback, designed to grow confidence one shot at a time.

Everything on the Mini Bolt Youth speaks to ease of use and safety. The newly integrated feed ramp makes loading effortless: drop a .22 S, L, or LR round into the receiver and the geometry does the work. Bright fiber optic sights—green front, orange rear—cut through guesswork and give young shooters a clear, intuitive sight picture from day one. The dual safety system (thumb safety plus an exposed cocking knob) puts instructors and parents in command, slowing the pace of fire and keeping every trigger press intentional.

Built from stainless steel inside and out—barrel, receiver, and action—the H005RMG shrugs off rough handling, range days, and all-season shooting. The Muddy Girl synthetic stock features wraparound checkering on the beavertail forearm for a secure grip without bulk. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting (MB-CSM pattern), so you can upgrade optics as skills grow. Like all Henry rifles, it's made in the USA and backed by a lifetime warranty.

Whether you're introducing a young shooter to the sport or building a dedicated training rifle, the Mini Bolt Youth delivers straightforward, honest instruction—one clean trigger break at a time.
