The H14 Long Ranger Big Woods is a lever-action firearm chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO, built by Henry in USA. From its 470 mm (18.5 in) barrel, Magtech FMJ (147 gr FMJ) leaves the muzzle at about 2714 fps (827 m/s), adjusted from the 610 mm test barrel the figure was measured in. Zeroed at 100 m, the bullet drops 135 mm by 200 m with 2193 J (1617 ft-lb) left. At the muzzle that is enough to defeat Drywall, Plate Glass, Pine Wood, Brick and Kevlar NIJ IIIA, and not enough for AR500 Steel. It feeds from a 4-round magazine.
