Lever-action rifles remain a practical choice for hunters and field shooters who value quick handling and straightforward reliability. Modern variants blend classic controls with contemporary features that enhance modularity, reduce weight, and maintain consistent shot placement in varied conditions.

HENRY LEVER ACTION X MODEL .30-30 is built around a lightweight, duty-ready chassis that keeps handling brisk without sacrificing useful accessory options.

Design and ergonomics

The synthetic furniture on this model provides a lightweight, worry-free alternative to traditional wood — ideal for long carries and adverse-weather use. In-line sling swivel studs are integrated for low-profile sling mounting, and the solid rubber recoil pad prevents the buttstock from slipping during follow-up shots, contributing to repeatable cheek weld and shot consistency.

Sight options and optics

The blued steel barrel is topped with bright fiber optic sights for fast target acquisition in dynamic scenarios. For shooters who prefer magnification, the receiver is drilled and tapped to accept optics — enabling mounts on a Picatinny rail. The forestock also includes a Picatinny rail and M-Lok accessory slots for lights, bipods, or other mission-specific gear.

Muzzle and suppressor readiness

For those wishing to run a suppressor or add a muzzle device, the barrel is finished with 5/824 threading and a removable thread protector to allow quick changes without permanent alterations to the barrel profile.

Cartridge characteristics and field performance

The .30-30 configuration remains a proven choice for medium-game hunting at typical brush and short-to-moderate distances. Expect manageable recoil, fast follow-up shots with lever manipulation, and effective terminal performance inside roughly 150–200 yards depending on load and bullet selection.

The HENRY LEVER ACTION X MODEL .30-30 retails at $944.99 — a price that positions it as a feature-rich, modern take on a classic platform. Check current availability and make your purchase on the retailer page: View product details and pricing.
