From its origins on 19th-century battlefields to its contemporary presence in hunting camps nationwide, the 45-70 Government cartridge can handle even the largest game in North America.

Introduced by the US Army in 1873 as the 45 Government, the cartridge soon leaped the commercial market as the 45-70. Aptly named for its 45 caliber projectile, loaded with 70 grains of black powder, nearly all late 19th and early 20th-century firearms manufacturers chambered their rifles for the 45-70.

These original rifles, and their manufacturers, faded from popularity with the passing of time. The 45-70 certainly did not. Loved by big-game hunters, committed outdoorsmen and women, and Wild West aficionados alike, modern 45-70 loads pay homage to the past while packing a truly contemporary punch.

Henry's® Brass Side Gate carries the torch for the 45-70, pairing old-world aesthetics with cutting-edge precision manufacturing. Its signature hardened brass receiver sports a side-loading gate, allowing the user to keep the four-round tubular magazine topped off without dropping the rifle from your shoulder. In addition, the folks at Henry retained their traditional removable tube magazine, allowing for safe and easy reloads after a successful day in the field. With both loading options at your disposal, you’ll always find your rifle at the ready and sights on the fur.

A classic semi-buckhorn rear sight and brass bead front sight sit atop the visually striking 22" polished blued steel octagon barrel, accompanied by a straight grip genuine American walnut buttstock and forearm and a polished brass barrel band. Like all Henry lever actions,  the slick, finely machined action inspires confidence in the field, making quick follow-up shots effortless.
