More compact, 25% lighter, self-contained, weatherproof - although you get varying opinions, depending on where you read the comparison. Realistically speaking, I'm probably looking at hike in/out usage (there are a lot of pit shoots around here) over bug out. I'm leaning towards something bigger than .22 for doomsday.
I think this one sums it up:
Own both. Enjoy both.
Camping, on a hike, my Henry AR7 comes with me.
In a bugout/SHTF situation though? I'd go with my 10/22.
I love my Henry. Allllllll the problems people site about the AR7 I feel Henry, when they bought the rights, ultimately fixed.
Mines not finicky, eats all ammo, feeds smooth, and always goes bang.
Henry is fighting a shitty legacy of a model other companies royally screwed up.
With that said.... my 10/22 would be the one to see me through a massive crisis or world changing catastrophe.
But camping or hiking? AR7 is in my bag.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
