Henry H1 Large Loop Classic Rifle .22 WMR 12rd Capacity 18.5" Barrel Walnut Stock

The Henry H1 Large Loop Classic Rifle in .22 WMR is a lever-action rimfire built for shooters who value simplicity, reliability, and that unmistakable Henry feel. With its oversized loop lever, smooth 12-round capacity, and classic American walnut furniture, this rifle is equally at home plinking at steel, hunting small game, or introducing new shooters to the joy of a quality lever gun. The 18.5-inch blued barrel keeps things handy in the field without sacrificing sight radius or ballistic efficiency.

If you've shot a Henry before, you know what you're getting: a well-executed, no-frills repeater that runs like it's been broken in for years. The large loop lever was designed with gloved hands and fast cycling in mind—a practical touch that makes a difference when you're moving from target to target. The fully adjustable rear sight and hooded front blade are honest iron sights that do their job without the need for optics, though the 3/8-inch grooved receiver lets you mount a scope if you choose to upgrade your setup.

The .22 WMR cartridge delivers real power beyond standard .22 LR, with enough range and authority for varmints, rabbits, and other small game out to reasonable distances. At 5.25 pounds with a 14-inch length of pull, the H1 is nimble enough for field work but substantial enough to shoot straight. The straight-grip walnut stock gives it genuine character—the kind of rifle that deserves a safe spot in your collection, not just a role as a throwaway .22.

This is Henry's take on the American rifle: honest, functional, and built to last. Whether you're after a dedicated small-game rig, a fun backyard shooter, or a gateway gun to lever-action mechanics, the H1 Large Loop in .22 WMR delivers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I mount a scope on the Henry H1 Large Loop?

Yes. The rifle features a 3/8-inch grooved receiver that will accept standard 3/8 groove scope rings. The iron sights are capable on their own, but the receiver grooves give you the option to upgrade to optics if you want to extend your range or improve precision.

What's the difference between .22 WMR and standard .22 LR?

The .22 WMR (Winchester Magnum Rimfire) is a more powerful cartridge than .22 LR, offering greater velocity and energy. This makes it better suited for hunting small game and varmints at extended range, and it packs more authority on target. The H1 is chambered in .22 WMR, so you'll get that extra performance.

Is the large loop lever an actual feature or just a size option?

The large loop is an intentional design choice—it's a bigger, more accessible lever designed for shooters wearing gloves or those who simply prefer faster, easier cycling. It's one of Henry's practical touches that sets their lever guns apart.

What's the length of pull, and will it fit me?

The H1 has a 14-inch length of pull (measured from the trigger to the back of the stock). This is a fairly standard dimension that works for most adult shooters; it may be snug for larger frames and generous for smaller ones. If you're concerned about fit, handle one in person or consult Henry's sizing guidance.
