92 has two locking lugs , that come up through top, stronger than others, hard to mount a scope on 92, but you can shoot hot loads in 92, Henry not so much, I like my Henry’s , but Rossi is little light power house.

I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

I have tried both. I like them separately for what they are.
Rossi Pros: Light weight Strong action Decent (enough) trigger
Rossi Cons: Barrels usually slug at .432+. Don't expect to shoot cast .430 diameter bullets with any accuracy. Difficult to take apart for cleaning. Needs a recoil pad for the bench using full house loads.
Henry Pros: Super smooth action Accurate Easy to mount optic Decent Trigger Easy to disassemble for cleaning
Henry Cons: Heavy

As an option look for a marlin 336 in 44 mag. They have a rep for not cycling but mine has never been a problem

Also I think the browning or winchestet 92s are a real upgrade from.the rossi 92 if you can spend the extra money

The Italian 92s are as good as the Miroku 92s. They are very nice and easy to find.
