[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 2614843, member: 13337"] I have first-hand experience with the Henry-Mini Bolt,,, It is an excellent, although expensive, rifle. I also have first hand experience with the Savage rascal,,, It too is an excellent little rifle. I bought a used Cricket because I found a great deal,,, It is a fine little rifle but not as "nice" as the others. What I don't understand is why people call it junk,,, I guess it's because it is at the bottom as far as fine fit and finish,,, But my co-workers son can put near every round in a dime sized circle at 25 yards. That's off a bench and using a cheap rifle rest,,, With the same set-up it's minute of clay pigeon every shot at 50 yards. At Buds Gun Shop: Cricket = $109.00 Rascal = $145.00 Mini-Bolt = $208.00 Granted that's only a $36.00 price difference between the two lowest priced rifles,,, But for some folk that $36.00 might mean owning a rifle or owning no rifle. I love the Henry single-shot rifles,,, My Henry Accu-Bolt is an extremely precise rifle,,, And if I had unlimited funds I would have bought a Mini-Bolt. But again, just because it's a "nicer" rifle,,, Doesn't mean the Cricket is junk. It would be very interesting to let Dylan shoot all three rifles,,, Just to see if the price increase would tighten his groups. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
