i think the original Henry Rifle held 16  Rimfire .44 Henry Flat cartridges, hence the saying..Load on Sunday, shoot all week. 

 

Just sayin'

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 .44-40 Uberti Henry will hold 13 rounds. My guess is the blanks they were firing are considerably shorter, allowing them to load more.

The original .44 Henry round was approximately the same dimensions as the .44 Russian cartridge!!  'Bout 16 and one in the pipe!!
