The Henry Repeating Arms Golden Boy .17 HMR 20 inches Golden Boy Rifle is a lever-action rimfire platform engineered for precision target shooting, small-game hunting, and tactical marksmanship training. Favored by law enforcement instructors and military small-arms specialists for its inherent reliability and low-recoil profile, this rifle delivers consistent accuracy downrange while maintaining the ergonomic advantages of lever-action operation—a proven mechanical design that requires no external power sources or batteries to function.

The .17 HMR cartridge provides superior velocity and flat trajectory over traditional .22 rimfire ammunition, making it ideal for shooters who demand tighter shot groups at distance without excessive noise signature. Built on Henry's time-tested lever-action platform, the Golden Boy utilizes a 20-inch barrel optimized for the .17 HMR's ballistic profile, delivering improved velocity and energy retention compared to shorter barrels. The rifle's manual lever mechanism provides positive round feeding and ejection without dependency on gas systems, springs, or complex assemblies—a critical advantage in austere environments or training scenarios requiring absolute reliability.

Weighing 8.06 lbs and measuring 39.75 inches overall, the Golden Boy maintains compact, nimble handling characteristics while the brass-finished receiver and American walnut furniture deliver both durability and professional aesthetics. This rifle is an excellent choice for those looking to enhance their shooting skills and experience the benefits of a classic lever-action design.
