The Henry Repeating Arms Golden Boy .17 HMR lever action rifle combines classic American gunsmithing with a cartridge purpose-built for precision varmint shooting and small game. This .17 HMR lever action stands out for its distinctive brass-finished receiver, buttplate, and barrel band that give it genuine visual character—not the generic black plastic you'll find on most modern rifles. If you're drawn to traditional lever guns but want a modern, high-velocity round that delivers flat trajectories and minimal recoil, the Golden Boy in .17 HMR is worth serious consideration.
Built around a 20-inch blued barrel and topped with adjustable buckhorn rear and beaded front sights, this rifle is equally at home on the bench, in the field, or hanging on the cabin wall. The American walnut furniture is well-fitted and finished—details matter when you're paying attention to craftsmanship. The .17 HMR cartridge itself is ideal for coyotes, prairie dogs, and other varmints at extended range, and the 12-round magazine capacity means fewer reloads between strings at the range.
At 6.75 pounds, the Golden Boy handles lightly enough for a day of walking and shooting, yet has the heft to manage recoil and sight picture with ease. The lever action is smooth and reliable, a time-proven system that requires no batteries, no AR-platform learning curve, and no apologies. Whether you're new to lever guns or a lifelong fan of the breed, Henry's execution here is honest and elegant.

Yes. The .17 HMR delivers high velocity (around 2,550 fps from a 20-inch barrel) with minimal drop at typical varmint ranges. It's effective on coyotes, prairie dogs, rabbits, and other small game where flat trajectory and accuracy matter.
The rifle ships with open sights (adjustable buckhorn rear and beaded front). Scope mounting would require aftermarket action or rail systems; confirm compatibility and gunsmith installation with Henry or a qualified dealer before purchasing if optics are essential to your setup.
You receive the rifle itself with its factory open sights, magazine, and walnut furniture. Always confirm shipping, warranty, and included accessories with Bosque Outdoors at time of purchase.
The .17 HMR fires a lighter, faster bullet (.17 caliber vs. .22), resulting in flatter trajectory and less wind drift. Both are offered in the Henry Golden Boy platform; choice depends on your intended game and preferred ballistics.
