Thanks for going over the malfunction....I've had this happen in Wyoming in a very sketchy ordeal in grizzly country. After living there for 7 years I learned quickly that depending on your ammo is EVERYTHING
I love a 45-70. Been hunting with a Marlin 45-70 for almost 40 years now. Bought it used for $200 back then, and it has never let me down. Enjoyed you're vid by the way.
Quick tip for fixing that Henry loading problem with the Hornadys. I had the same issue, if you spin the tube back and forth while pushing it down (180 degrees to the left 180* to right, rinse and repeat) it will go down no problem!
Short Story, My brother, father and I went on a bear hunt in Montana. Where it was free range hunting. My brother shot a black bear in the chest about 25-30yds with a 7mm-magnum. The bullet exited the bear’s left side. We tracked it for over a mile through some of the roughest Montana mountains. There was a spot we found where the bear had rested against a huge pine tree. And in fact. Packed it’s wound with dirt. At this point, I realized bear are very tough. And pretty smart.
i shot one with a 30-06 about 80 yards max. gave it 15 min and grabbed the 45-70. after tracking it for a wile in thick thick brush i thought to my self this seams like the spot i began.... the dang thing double back on me then went to the truck. good thing my buddy was on the road. shot and missed at 100. it went in to the bush again and went parallel with the truck.... then crossed the road to get behind me. all i heard was the first shot so i looked up to see this 300+ pound bear wounded coming right at me hahahha so i popped it in the chest and it dropped just to crawl with what ever it had left to get me hahahahah my buddys first hunt and it was a bear. pretty sweet if you ask me. so yea there tough as iron. wish the grizzle hunt ban would get lifted in my area.
7GEREZ Can you tell me how you know the bear packed it’s own wound with dirt please? Did you find its lost phone with bear selfies on it? 😁 Half taking the piss here.....
I'm from New Brunswick, and I can confirm the back country skeeters were terrible that year. Long winter meant nonfood for the birds in the spring, and many died off. When the bugs finally came there wasn't enough birds to eat them all. If I wasn't packing extra beer and bbq weight, they would of carried me off
While I have always admired The Henry rifle's fit and finish, and like their general appearance, the tube loading is a dealbreaker for me. My first centerfire rifle, purchased with a G.I. check, in 1975, was a Marlin 336. This was one of their premium rifles. The quality of the wood, the bluing of the metal parts and general fit and finish, are nowhere to be found in Remlin's rifles, on the market today. I have handled a Henry rifle in the Scheels in Billings, MT. The quality reminded me of the quality of the Marlin I bought min 1975. I just don't appreciate the logic behind including a feature that was made obsolete by John Moses Browning in the 1870s. I can tolerate this tube on a Marlin MDL 60, 22LR, but on a highish powered centerfire rifle, I find it anachronistic. In fact, I consider it a flaw. A flaw on what would be a pretty desirable rifle w/o this idiotic feature. A glaring flaw on a fairly expensive rifle.
As a Henry owner, I kinda agree. Tube loading is pretty dangerous, IMO. Reeeeaaaly hard to maintain muzzle control when sticking your hand right in front of the muzzle at weird angles. Plus, no chance of topping off or easy loading. The new Henry rifles all have gates though. I might consider swapping mine out for that reason.
Same reason I skipped the Henry and went with a Marlin, at the time there was no loading gate option, I don't care for tube loading especially in the field, very easy to drop ammo etc. in the dirt and hard not to point the rifle at part of you. I like to be able to keep the ammo easily topped off, you never know when your hunting rifle could become your self defense rifle when out in the field.
If your not aware they make side gate loading models now. I have one in 45-70 and it’s awesome. Still have the option to load with the tube. I use the tube to unload the gun instead of having to cycle all the rounds.
hmm, i havent noticed that problem with the hornaday ammo in my henry rifle, but if it hangs up at all while pushing the mag shut a slight rotating jiggle usually unsticks any tube mag issues i have without having to force them, same works with my grandads 80 year old 22 rifle
Hornady Brass is also about an 8th of an inch shorter to allow that tipped bullet to fit the OAL specs in lever guns. I found this out when I tried to re-load the brass for my Marlin. I found that Speer 300gr Hollowpoints kill Whitetails like lightning.
People who make bad shots inflate old myths about animals toughness to shift blame to their equipment. Grizzlys and their "impenetrable skull plate", hogs and their "armored shoulder", etc. How did an old .50 cal round ball ever kill these critters years ago?
@Dave Alexander Actually I have a XLR JM stamp 45-70 and the new GBL I got a couple of years ago. The first run of Rems where terrible. The new ones are awesome. I got the GBL for $450 brand new. If you know how to use a 1895 I could unload the tube without cycling the action. All you do is push in the bullet stop and the there you go!!
It's not just Henry. It's been common for Marlin 45-70's to jam as well. I was under the impression it was the edge of the feeding gate catching the rim.
The new side loading Henry must have eliminated the problem you had with the Hornady Leverevolution ammo. No problems with my JM Marlin guide gun, and I find it very accurate.
Looked like he could’ve had reloads with FTX projectiles with standard length brass cases. LeverEvolution ammo cases are about .050” shorter than normal SAAMI spec 45/70 ammo.
I just checked the several brands of 45-70 ammo I have on hand. The "lip" on the Hornady ammo is less pronounced than on the Federal I have and is the same on the Remington and Winchester ammo, so that appears to be more to do with the Henry loading tube than ammunition in general the Lehigh seems to be the exception rather than the rule, I've not had issues in my Marlin 1895 with any of them.
Tallest PB is in Klamath Ca standing 49 feet tall the 4 others in North America are 31 ft tall :) love the content brother keep it up! .444 marlin is one of my favorite cartridges followed closely by the .45/70 it's a absolute blast thump stuff with!
My Henry 44 mag will certainly get locked up if you have the lever open when you load the tube, but it's easily fixed by unscrewing the lever and pulling it out you can see the round and poke it back up the tube with a plastic chamber flag or equal to it.
Love the 45-70... Never even thought of putting any kind of scope on it. always just open sights for the last 20 years. Hmmm. might consider a red dot though maybe. take a lot of re-learning though.
I really enjoyed the video, Its nice to hear someone talk about proper shot placement on bears, 100% agree with you. Interesting I have been playing with a Marlin 1895 cowboy here in Alberta, and it does not like to feed Hornady Leverevolution into the chamber, loads alright into the tube but when I go to chamber, jams up on the lip just like you showed with your tube. The other ammo point I found interesting was how you grouped tighter with +p ammo, I reloaded a bunch of 405gr flat nose ammo and the higher the velocity the better my rifle liked it setting out at 1950fps for a nice 1/2 inch group at 100, really happy I put a nice recoil pad because it really helps and makes shooting those rounds enjoyable.
FPs doesn't mean crap, what barrel length did they test the ammo in. I have had a Marlin 45-70 SS since 76, have shot a lot of handloads, some of the powder doesn't burn before bullet exits the barrel!
In Maine we judge bears by their ear size. A huge bear has little Oreo sized ears while a little 100 pounders ears look big compared to his head. I'm a photographer and I've been to Bangor and seen Paul Bunyan countless times. At your video time stamp 4:54, if you would have taken one or two steps to your left and taken a picture, it looks like Paul Bunyan is sticking up his middle finger. That's because the handle of the peavey in his left hand is lined up with his right hand. It's a pretty common local joke. Oh and I do believe that is the tallest Paul Bunyan statue.? Great video. Thank you for sharing.
Love your t-shirt!!! Where did you get it?? I have a Henry lever in the .45-70!! Love it!! I shoot the Hornady LEVEREVOLUTION .325 grn. 2050fps. I haven’t tried any other ammo. Love the seafood too!!!!! Thanks for the great video!!! Cheers brother!!!!🇺🇸
My Henary i can get 5 rounds in the tube and 1 on the chanbber and if it hits on the tune rod i just work it in and it does fine so my Henary works fine with 6 rounds total
The quietest animal in the forest is the bear, the lion, and the deer. I have hunted all three and I think the bear is the stealthiest critter in the woods. Looked to be a good time, thanks for sharing.
Why are you trying to put the bullets in upside down? How do you plan on shooting the gun? I shot a 45 /70 Henery and have never had a problem. The tube of the Herny easily fits over the case. I reload 100 % of my rounds you must crimp each case to keep the bullet from creeping in the case upon discard of the rifle.
I shot a bear with a flatnose 210 grain 30,06 . Directly in the heart as she stood on her hind legs 15 yards from me. I found her 200 yards away under a ton of brush. Tough as nails.
Dave Alexander... I’m a bit tongue-in-cheek here, but I sincerely don’t have any of the issues you describe specific to my Marlin. Functions great and used frequently. W/re/to grabbers, one good thing about Lever guns... The grabbers also have tough yarn to spin them into a “military style weapon”, though some day soon they may to contain evil features.
Those Henry’s are awesome rifles! I want! I currently own a original “JM” 1895 Marlin guide gun aka: Pre-“Marlington” (pers (Remington owned and poorly manufactured) rifle. I used it quite a bit for black bears and a few big Russian boars. It hits them all hard. My rifle doesn’t like the 300 gr bullets as it’s really not as accurate. The 405gr loads which I prefer anyways, is extremely accurate. I can’t wait to get a Henry in .45-70 and one in .44mag.
I have a question. You said you were going to hunt in Canada. Do you have your Canadian pal or rpal? Or is there another way for an American to legally bring a rifle into Canada?
Concerning the issues with uncrimped ammo, Henry does not recommend Hornady Leverevolution and unfortunately they only listed a couple ammo brands to shoot throught this model, one being Federal's line which is good enough for me. I also reload so I can control the tolerance at the crimp (H010). My issue wasn't so much the loading tube, but the shell carrier getting gouged up inside the action. Henry sent me a new one, reluctantly, so I didn't have to send my rifle in and now I just use Federal or reloads. If you can live with that the rifle is excellent.
The Federal Hammerdown I have has a more pronounced lip than any other ammo brands I have in 45-70, despite being called premium and having the nickel plated cases. It all works fine in my Marlin. Interesting Henry doesn't recommend the Hornady ammo.
@@fiveowaf454 well that's exactly it....it's an issue that needs addressing I think because the Leverevolution was the best shooting ammo that I ran through the rifle with a slightly better velocity and made by one of the best ammo companies in the business. I gather they don't recommend it because of the carrier issue I described.
@@fiveowaf454 Yeah they only recommended like two makes of ammo (believe it or not!)....one being Federal which is another high performer that I like to use, so that's what I stick with unless I'm reloading my own cartridges which I can control the crimp and use whatever components I like including Leverevolution bullets.
need to change the follower in that rifle and you can use the Hornady ammo. the Hornady case is actually a different length than flat nose 45-70 ammo. i had to do that and now it works perfectly. the crazy part is, it worked fine during the sight in, then jammed after shooting a deer. luckily i didn't need a follow up shot
... maybe I was born under a lucky star ... never had any jamming or malfunction issues with the factory 325 grain Hornady FTX factory ammo in my Marlin 1895GS ... that tube feed is great for a .22LR ... nuff said😁
I understand completely the issue with inserting the tube with the Hornady rounds. My Henry 22lr often has the same issue with some rounds. I dont blame Henry though. Instead of trying to man-handle the tube, and shoving it down; pretend she's a lovely lady, and gently gyrate the knobbed end. That'll get the tube off the lip.
Sooory you didn't get a bear there eh? (being Canadian, felt I should throw in a little Canuck speak). It looks like my fellow Canadians took good care you and hopefully you had fun. When International Sportsman turns into a big deal, we'll take you out again and get you the bear you deserve. Great video, thanks.
Very interesting! I always wondered about that ammunition. Very interesting to see how little deformation even the rock caused. I searche for, but couldn't find this video on Full30. Does it have a different title on there or is the search engine just that bad?
I had high expectations for the extreme penetrators with my Henry all weather, could not cycle more than one round without a jam, open for suggestions.
Thoughts on PITa?

Never understood why Henry has that tube load feature? It is not classic lever gun at all!! What compels them to make those things?
The problem is a design flaw from Henry's magazine system. The Hornady bullets dont have feed problems in other arms of a different manufacturer
the hornady with the soft tip hangs up on every tube load gun I have tried. never a problem with a side load gate.
My Henary i can get 5 rounds in the tube and 1 on the chanbber and if it hits on the tune rod i just work it in and it does fine so my Henary works fine with 6 rounds total
That scoped octagonal barrel was a beauty
I have a Henry 45-70 and also have that same ammo and mine hangs up as well.

I really want one but I'm in California and pickings are slim right now.
I have a question. You said you were going to hunt in Canada. Do you have your Canadian pal or rpal? Or is there another way for an American to legally bring a rifle into Canada?
Which Xtreme Hunter bullet for the 4570 was used the 325 Greiner that was my guess because of the Velocity you stated they also make a 265 Greiner
The Hornady round seems to work well in the marlin rifle
Better deburring. But its still a real issue for hornaday
What are your thoughts on the X model 45-70 compared to the all weather 45-70 you used in this video?
Better luck next time brother!!! Good video!!!
Question regarding loading issues with the Hornady ammunition: Why wasn't this caught BEFORE the hunting trip? smh.......
I've never seen a squishy bear in the wild.
Concerning the issues with uncrimped ammo, Henry does not recommend Hornady Leverevolution and unfortunately they only listed a couple ammo brands to shoot throught this model, one being Federal's line which is good enough for me. I also reload so I can control the tolerance at the crimp (H010). My issue wasn't so much the loading tube, but the shell carrier getting gouged up inside the action. Henry sent me a new one, reluctantly, so I didn't have to send my rifle in and now I just use Federal or reloads. If you can live with that the rifle is excellent.
The Federal Hammerdown I have has a more pronounced lip than any other ammo brands I have in 45-70, despite being called premium and having the nickel plated cases. It all works fine in my Marlin. Interesting Henry doesn't recommend the Hornady ammo.
@@fiveowaf454 well that's exactly it....it's an issue that needs addressing I think because the Leverevolution was the best shooting ammo that I ran through the rifle with a slightly better velocity and made by one of the best ammo companies in the business. I gather they don't recommend it because of the carrier issue I described.
@@bigriver3278 Based on my own ammo collection I'd expect the issue to be prevalent with many ammo brands/types as they have the lip too.
@@fiveowaf454 Yeah they only recommended like two makes of ammo (believe it or not!)....one being Federal which is another high performer that I like to use, so that's what I stick with unless I'm reloading my own cartridges which I can control the crimp and use whatever components I like including Leverevolution bullets.
I'm watching that stock dig 4 inches into your shoulder every shot.
Those shells are no joke
need to change the follower in that rifle and you can use the Hornady ammo. the Hornady case is actually a different length than flat nose 45-70 ammo. i had to do that and now it works perfectly. the crazy part is, it worked fine during the sight in, then jammed after shooting a deer. luckily i didn't need a follow up shot
Could you compare the LeHigh Xtreme Hunter to the Hornady Leverevolution in 45-70?
... maybe I was born under a lucky star ... never had any jamming or malfunction issues with the factory 325 grain Hornady FTX factory ammo in my Marlin 1895GS ... that tube feed is great for a .22LR ... nuff said😁
How much chamber pressure do these rounds put out?
I have the same issue with the Hornady ammo in my 44. Henry the lip on the hull catches the tube and makes it little harder to load
That's why God put the King's loading gate on all worthy lever actions!
I'll never get my 15 minutes back, watch a hunting video with no hunting in it. Baloney.
Man, I really like that refile. Those bullets look gnarly.
It’s a hunting trip. These trips need to be thought through more carefully if you think that a .45-70 is a requirement to survive the hunt.
Bet you're upset you didn't take that day 1 bear. Remember the first rule of hunting.
That Paul Bunyan statue is small compared to the one in Minocqua Wisconsin from what I could tell from the photos
What kind of ammo did you use when you made your original zero? Those +P rounds tickle my fancy!
What red dot are you using?
I understand completely the issue with inserting the tube with the Hornady rounds. My Henry 22lr often has the same issue with some rounds. I dont blame Henry though. Instead of trying to man-handle the tube, and shoving it down; pretend she's a lovely lady, and gently gyrate the knobbed end. That'll get the tube off the lip.
The great northern mosquito is many times taken lightly before its actually experienced
What optic did you use..?????
I don’t have that problem with my 2013 Henry 45-70 as far as the ammo in the Hornady Lever Evolution.
When this video started, I thought he was going after brown or grizzley bears. A 3030 is fine for black bear.
What guide service did you use in New Brunswick?
Do you think 30 30 not a good round for black bear?
Sooory you didn't get a bear there eh? (being Canadian, felt I should throw in a little Canuck speak). It looks like my fellow Canadians took good care you and hopefully you had fun. When International Sportsman turns into a big deal, we'll take you out again and get you the bear you deserve. Great video, thanks.
Why was this demonetized?
Try rotating the tube as you insert it ...
What kind of .450 rifle did Earl (?) use (because Canada
Thanks for sharing your adventure. Looks like one hell of a good time.
Very interesting! I always wondered about that ammunition. Very interesting to see how little deformation even the rock caused. I searche for, but couldn't find this video on Full30. Does it have a different title on there or is the search engine just that bad?
I had high expectations for the extreme penetrators with my Henry all weather, could not cycle more than one round without a jam, open for suggestions.
Buy a Marlin 1895 SBL, mine cycles everything I put through it, and so does my brother’s 😎👍
@@Roninforged my marlin wouldn't cycle the hornady.
If this video is demonitized why did I see an add?
Limited ads. Also, they run ads and then don’t pay creators all the time.
@@VSO_Gun_Channel wow that seems super shitty.
@@VSO_Gun_Channel TH-cam it's totally fine making money off content they deem not monetizable that's hilarious.
This is why we complain.
so, good vid of the bugs, loved the fishing, too bad about border crossing, and what is the title of this clip again????
I hate to do this to you but the tube magazine doesn’t get snagged up on the top of the case!!!!! It simply gets hung up on rim being a rim cartridge.
i guess youtube likes bears
