Since I've started competing in Steel Challenge, my lever action rimfires (Henry) seem to be seeing little use.      Because of the tube load, they aren't allowed in Steel Challenge, but is there anything competitive that they could be used in?

Where in the rules does is state you can't use a tube fed rimfire ???  

The rules don't specifically prohibit tubular magazines. But there is no way to remove the tube, insert new rounds, and reinsert the tube, without sweeping yourself -- which is an automatic DQ.  Tubular magazines don't work in Steel Challenge for that reason.

I was thinking "tube fed through the rear" actually,  think a carnival gun

That would actually work, although I know of no one currently making a decent match gun with that loading configuration.
