Feets / Collection / My build Henry supreme

Got my rail mounted, cheap lpvo on. Taking it up north to some crown land ranges next month to put it through its paces for real. Very happy with this thing. Naming it Lorraine.

these are good guns i love mine and it is a tack driver putting rrp furniture on them also makes them look better imo

u/IntrepidKitchen5322 25d ago

Are you getting 1 MOA groups with a variety of different rounds/brands? It seems to be a 2 MOA gun based on a couple other reviews I've seen, and can be picky with ammo in terms of accuracy.

u/Relevant_Diver_3228 24d ago

I use some Hornady match to sight it in and when I feel like going for better groups and it is good sub 1 moa usually but usually I just use the green tip for plinking steel and I hit it every time

Didn't know it was possible to attach both rings on the same side of the knobs on a scope. It doesn't mess it up with the recoil?

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

This thing has negligible recoil. It's only 5.56. I doubt this scope will last very long anyways, it's a cheapo Amazon scope. It's actually still mounted too far back for correct eye relief, but I can't go any further forwards so it's good enough until I can buy a real optic! Lol

u/yummybunnybear 25d ago

You can try a one piece scope mount and put it forward more

2

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

My main goal was trying to keep the optic low and close to the bore, I don't want to add a cheek riser if I don't have to. Although it kinda seems like I should anyways

u/International_Mud367 25d ago

what optic is it? its strange to see an lpvo with long eye relief

2

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

Amazon easyshot lpvo

u/Marcthehunter 23d ago

You wouldn't happen to have a link for it? Might check it out for my turkey loadout!

EZshoot LPVO Rifle Scope with... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0DT18NHCX?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I believe this is it

u/International_Mud367 25d ago

+1 for general gun!

u/FroBro243 25d ago

I don't think I have ever seen a scope mount set up like that. Was the eye relief to long for a comfortable sight picture with a traditional arrangement?

u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS Neumann Metalworks 25d ago

Should see my RS22M setup, I have to mount a cantilever sight "backwards" to get the LPVO close enough to my eye haha

1

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

Yes correct. I will be purchasing a proper optic at some point, I just had this cheap Amazon scope laying around and figured id try it out. It's actually still too far back, seems like a very long eye relief optic.

u/Massive_Expression_2 25d ago

Normal eye relief is around 3.5" so I wonder if that scope was designed for use in Scout rifle configuration. Anyway, nice gun and congratulations! What distance were you testing at to get those tight groups?

1

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

It's very possible! I do love scout rifles. Only 25 yards. If I took more time I'm sure I could have put all 5 rounds thru the same hole. More interested in how the groups look over 200m. Will post an update next week

2

u/Massive_Expression_2 25d ago

I love Henry rifles, so I hope this one meets all your expectations. Looking forward to hearing how it shoots.

3

u/Big-Guitar-1979 25d ago

what cal? I assume you can use 5.56 by this mag

5

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

Yes 5.56 or .223

3

u/LumberjackCDN Gold'n Loan Outfitters & Pawn 25d ago

I like seeing these things shoot tight groups.

3

u/Riversruinsandwoods 25d ago

Been waiting for a couple paycheques to justify this one.

2

u/DougMacRay617 25d ago

What distance and how maany shots

1

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

Only 25 yards and that's a 5 round group. If I took more time I'm sure I could put all 5 thru the same hole.

5

u/DougMacRay617 25d ago

Why not 100?

2

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

Because I don't have access to a longer range without driving 7 hours to crown land.

2

u/frustratedpopo 20d ago

Head over to Amherstburg Target Sports for 100 yards.

1

u/Deizelpunk 19d ago

What's the range fee there?

2

u/frustratedpopo 19d ago

$300 yearly, $10 day pass for the 100 yard rifle range.

u/BowFella 25d ago

Average General gun Enjoyer

u/epnk420 25d ago

Gotta love Henry’s

2

u/SpinachStunning5547 25d ago

I know your scope has shitty eye relief and you will change ot soon but still this hurts my eye😂

1

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

It's definitely a weird look no doubt. Functional for now though

2

u/iNeedAdivorce 25d ago

Desperately trying to find one in 450 bushmaster.....

1

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

You're gonna be looking for a while. They only make them in 5.56 and 300 blackout right now.

3

u/iNeedAdivorce 25d ago

Nah. 450 is in production.

1

u/Deizelpunk 25d ago

🫪 since when? Last time I checked it was 5.56 and 300blackout. What other options are there?

1

u/iNeedAdivorce 22d ago

And I found one on iRunGuns.com. I'm poorer now lol.

u/Q-Ball7 In the end, it's taxes all the way down 22d ago

You can always rebarrel it.  This is still a modern rifle, so the barrel is retained with a nut.

So if you want yours in .350 Legend nothing’s actually stopping you.
