Who This Is For

The Henry Big Boy Steel .360 Buckhammer is purpose-built for deer hunters and brush-country shooters who want a fast-handling, hard-hitting lever-action without the added weight of a traditional brass receiver. It's an ideal choice for hunters pursuing whitetail, mule deer, or black bear in thick timber or mountain terrain, and for anyone who appreciates the smooth, reliable action that Henry lever guns are known for — now with the added convenience of side-gate loading.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the .360 Buckhammer cartridge a good choice for deer hunting?

The .360 Buckhammer was developed specifically for lever-action rifles used in straight-walled cartridge hunting states. It fires a .358-caliber bullet at velocities suitable for ethical harvests on whitetail and mule deer out to 200 yards, delivering significantly more energy than cartridges like the .30-30 Win. while remaining comfortable to shoot. Its straight-walled design also meets the legal requirements for many Midwestern deer seasons that restrict bottleneck rifle cartridges.

How does the side gate loading system work on the Henry Big Boy Steel?

The side gate on the Henry Big Boy Steel allows you to load individual rounds directly into the receiver from the right side of the rifle — just like a traditional cowboy-style lever gun — without having to remove or unscrew the magazine tube. You can still load through the front of the tubular magazine as well, giving you two convenient options. This is especially useful for topping off your rifle quietly in the field between shots.

Is the large loop lever purely cosmetic, or does it serve a practical purpose?

The large loop lever on the Henry Big Boy Steel is very much functional. Its oversized opening allows hunters to cycle the action smoothly even when wearing thick winter gloves or mittens — a significant advantage during cold-weather hunts. It also provides a more positive, comfortable grip for shooters with larger hands, and gives the rifle its classic Western aesthetic as a bonus.
