A guy can't rightfully say the Big Boy's tube loading is anything like the Henry 1860 loading.

I'll take a loading gate 8 days a week over the Big Boy tube. I'll tolerate that silly business in a Marlin 60, but only because of all of the other virtues of the rifle - I don't condone the tube feed abomination of the Henry Big boy.
