This gun with thin plaster targets is a great way to introduce kids to shooting with no recoil and less noise. But for vermin, snakes, etc. I've used a 2" barrel pistol and gotten similar up close pattern. In that short a barrel the rifling has little effect and its a lot easier to carry around than a rifle.

Marlin made a version years ago. Hard to find now. Glad Henry picked up the mantle on this. That cci round is super handy for small pests.
Tried to help FIL with birds in his barn. A couple of cartridges of bird shot and we had to stop as it was punching many little holes in the corrugated roof tin. Test it out before making a leaky roof for yourself.

Why would it be any different in this case? On a real note, the pattern is great.

I'll echo what you said on the crimped brass shotshells. Had to biy some when CCI was not available. Very unsatisfactory results.
Love this. Had this been around years ago I’d if gotten it instead of a Gamo .22 caliber pellet rifle. Bought it because and it has a shot shell adaptor so I can shoot pellets or .22 shot shell. Can’t remember if it’s a rifled barrel or not. But the shot pattern isn’t bad for what it is. Oh and by the way, thanks for yet another Henry on the wish/want list. Just what I needed. lol
My Dad had an old Remington garden gun that was awesome for squirrels!
I have a .22 caliber rimfire smoothbore bolt action gun: Remington 510 SB (smoothbore), single shot. I don't believe it has any choke but it shoots a pretty good dense pattern out to 15 feet or so..good enough to dispatch small critters like a rat or bird or larger snake. Some smoothbore .22 rimfires do have some degree of choke in the bore those for sure are limited to .22 rimfire shot cartridges only. Never tried regular solid bullet loads in mine it's limited to shot cartridges only.
Cool!!
It patterned better than I thought it would. Good video

A few months before the "Great Ammo Shortage" of 2016-17? I'd bought several CCI.22 LR shot shell boxes, . Most of the time I was buying basic.22 standard and I would always notice the CCI shot shell for $3. And even lower, so I'd just add it to my order each time for online purchases. Eventually, I ended up with 50 or more boxes of .22 shell. And still got most of it in my Ammo storage. I used them on testing a revolver at paper targets. Seem to work well at 10-15 feet, but out of a 2 inch revolver, probably not much power, but worked.
Around here(soutern in). Many vfws shoot 22 shot indoors for sport. Closest to x wins. I have a henry and a routledge bore rem (supposed to be best ever made). The rem does better on avg, but the henry is very competative. The performance of both is affected by ventilation, humidy and temp signifigantly. The henry shoots solid bullets to minute of groundhog easily to 40 yds or so.

looks like a grate little rifle, but could not find one in the east coast of Canada, got a EGE Arms LV410 leaver action 410. holds five shots and a great looking shotgun, very smooth action got it in the black walnut stock. Comes with sights and a rail and two different stocks, and five chocks. Can not find any videos on this model. 18.5" barrel should make a great little garden and barn gun, using 9 or 8 shot. Want to check the patterns for the different chocks, most likely full open for close range rats. Even comes with a raped around rail to put a light on for night shooting. A very solid made shotgun.

It will be used to shoot stuff in the garden. Squash, tomatoes are especially good to shoot!

Smooth bore 22? Check out the Mossberg 42 TR Targo with Targo trap thrower attached to the gun. Pull and shoot. First one I ever saw was on display at the NRA Museum inside the Bass Pro in Springfield MO.
For reference, 30 feet is only 9 meter, you will need a very small garden

Yes you do need to worry about richochets, always wear eye protection when shooting
Do you sell that furniture by itself ? I would love it on my H001
It would have been interesting to see the same test with a 22LR rifled barrel to compare.
Much better than shooting those shells from a rifle. Are there plans for a .22 Magnum version? Could even go into a big bore and make one to shoot .38 special CCI shotshells.
Y'all gotta make a third version of the Original Henry rifle but only this time chamber it in .45 ACP or .45 Auto Rim. I noticed that the .44 Rimfire cartridge that the 1860 Henry fired is pretty similar to .45 ACP when it comes to size & ballistics, and knowing that they're both small cartridges (compared to .45 Colt and .44-40) I feel like it's possible that an Original Henry rifle in .45 ACP could hold up to 15-16 rounds just like the 1860 Henry did.

Kann man diese "garden gun" auch in österreich/austria kaufen?
I keep thinking the 9mm flobert that was avaliable in mass 10 years ago would be way more a garden gun. They had a single shot like a H&R...with the rimfire 9mm shot shells...that would be mean in a lever gun.
cost?
Fun little lever gun. Picked one up a year or so ago, I've had rat issues. Hard to find in Canada, waited well over a year for a dealer to get some in stock. Being a smooth bore I'm wondering why not simply have a bead sight on it vs buckhorn rear + front blade? While it works ok, seems overkill for such a short range shotgun as would be an optic. I suspect it's due to manufacturing economy of scale? Easier to just keep the line running as for the rifled version? For the extra $$$ charged it would be nice to customize the sight appropriately for a shotgun. ;) For chits & giggles I put a peep sight on the receiver & removed the buckhorn. Need to go shoot it now to see if I need to mess with the front blade, perhaps remove it altogether.
That lettering really looks terrible.

When speed shooting a lever action, keep your finger furter back on the lever and rested in a slightly higher position. That way as the action of closing the lever happens, you time it so your squeezing the trigger by having your finger hit it, without pulling it but touching it in one fluid motion for your shot.
