Very versatile - .38 Specials for plinking, +P for a little more punch, all the way up to full-power .357 180 or 200-grain cannonballs for serious work. It can share ammo with my Ruger .357 revolvers - don't have to think about another caliber. Miroku makes them under license from Winchester and does a very nice job. Walnut stock, clean blue finish, very smooth action - everything you'd expect from a Winchester product. It wasn't cheap, but to me worth the price.
This is why I am leaning towards the .38/.357. Looking at the Henry Repeating Arms Big Boy Carbine Blued / Brass / Wood .357 Mag 16.5-inch 7Rd.

Well, if we can get to the range soon to let you shoot my .30-30, I'll bring along my Henry .22 also, then you can see the Henry quality, which is impressive.
