Your Henry rifle is in great condition. Used and not abused.
I shoot a Alex Henry double rifle and I suggest using paper patched bullets (per Mike's directions) and a slightly reduced powder charge. Put a dry wad over the powder and some lightly greased felt wad over the dry wad, then your bullet. Make sure the bullet is snug in the case, but most BPE rifles do not like a lot of neck tension (friction force holding the bullet in the case). It is why BPE bullets were manually crimped into place with a crimper. Have fun and post more photos. Congratulations on your nice gun
