Was this a .44-70 rifle? Or a straight up .45? A very good size magazine for those calibers.

Was this a .44-70 rifle? Or a straight up .45?It fired a 44 Rimfire and had less power than the later 44=40 - but Lordy, you could pump out those rounds pretty fast!

Believe it was a .44 rimfire, Not a high power round

Used a special rimfire round unique to the Henry.
Modern repros can made in all those calibers, though.
