I just saw an ad in Guns & Ammo for the Rossi Rio Grande lever action guns i bigger calibers. It loads through a door in the right side of the receiver.

Very interesting...
all rossi lever guns have standard loading gates

HY*NDAI is to cars, what Caracal, Hi-Point, and Jennings is to handguns. The cars may or may not run ok, but the corporation SUCKS.
That's my problem, I always forget about Rossi. That 45-70 Rio Grande looks really nice. I like that it comes with a rail on the top of the gun. UGH! I'll be adding this one to the top of my list. I'm starting to feel like Bawanna with this list that is pages and pages long of guns. The worst part is, I can't actually put the Rio Grande at the top as I have a complete AR lower sitting in my gun cabinet with no upper...so that needs to be #1. Then I can worry about the rifles.
Bawanna, does your son like the Henry 17? Would you recommend getting one, or going with a savage bolt action if I wanted a 17?
Yes we both like it, that being said I have the Savage Bolt in 17HMR and for that round with it's potential for accuracy a scope is a big plus, so I much prefer the Savage bolt. Putting a scope on a lever gun should be a cardinal sin if it isn't already.
If I was to go another Henry I'd probably go another caliber, 22 or something.
The lever is plenty accurate and it's fun to shoot but the bolt to me anyhow is just a better fit for that caliber.

That looks nice.
The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.

I like the Ruger, but they are proud of their rifle...quite a bit more so than a lot of the other 17s I've looked at.
