Big Jake1001 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 i think the original Henry Rifle held 16 Rimfire .44 Henry Flat cartridges, hence the saying..Load on Sunday, shoot all week. Just sayin' Big Jake
Sedalia Dave Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Near as I can tell their rifles held 19 rounds. Wonder what cartridge they were shooting? Guy on left fired 19 Center fired 18 but it looks like he had one fail to fire Right guy fired 7 died and then center guy picked it up and fired 7 more.

My guess is the blanks they were firing are considerably shorter, allowing them to load more.
Blackwater 53393 Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 The original .44 Henry round was approximately the same dimensions as the .44 Russian cartridge!! 'Bout 16 and one in the pipe!!
Okiepan Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Reenactors using blanks is why so many shots, hence the sound and no recoil but really neat video cant tell if it was cw or IW though
