Question Henry Big Boy Steel (44)

Seems to be a new .44 mag lever gun for this year. Anybody know anything about it?
I would like to have one to plink at the range and I load 44s. What bullet weight do they like? My revolver likes 200gr.
Somebody please talk me into or out of this idea.

Had a Marlin years back and it kicked like a mule but it was light to carry and fast handling. Used it for walk hunting where shots would be close and fast. The loads were rifle only if I remember correctly.
