thank you, you are the first that said it's just a slow functioning gun. all my research always focused on the the loading of the tube mag. I love the gun, and i will probably use it, until i buy something different.

I know that Big Boys are not popular, from my research non-popularity stems from no side loading gate resulting in slow loading time. But now they are offered with side loading gates. 1. Is a Henry Big Boy Steel, model #H012GC in 45 Colt approved for SASS events? 2. Was the unpopularity only from the loading issue which is now in theory corrected by the side gate? Why am i asking? I own said rifle and I thinking about doing some events. I also own a Henry Large Frame in 45-70 that i know is approved. Thank you and very sorry for my newbie stupidity.
