In many (but not all) situations it was preferable simply for the amount of firepower it put out compared to muzzle loaded rifles which were more or less the standard issue. The Henry used metallic cartridges and was breech loaded, which allowed for much faster loading, and it held 16 cartridges, as opposed to one. It had a rate of fire of approximately 28 rounds per minute versus the two to three rounds per minute of the Springfield Model 1861.
