Hank the .308 Long Ranger

There are tools you use, and then there are the pieces of gear that become part of the family. In this Henry DNA episode, we take you behind the story of one such rifle, a Henry Long Ranger .308 affectionately known as “Hank.”

Some rifles are strictly functional, but others earn their place in family lore. That’s certainly true for Jeremy’s Long Ranger. It’s the rifle he reaches for year after year when hunting season rolls around. It’s the rifle he shared with his dad for a once-in-a-lifetime bull elk hunt. It’s the rifle he’ll share with his kids when they’re of age.

What Makes Hank So Special?

In this video, we step away from specs and performance charts to focus on something deeper – the personal history and meaningful role this rifle plays in a hunter’s life. You’ll hear about:

• How Jeremy ended up with this specific rifle as his go-to hunting companion.
• The memories he’s made with it over the years.
• How a firearm can become more than a tool.

Whether you’re a seasoned hunter familiar with long-range calibers or someone who appreciates the stories behind the gear, this episode highlights the emotional connection between a hunter and their rifle.

Enjoy!
