New Heym Express ~ .458 Lott & New Swarovski 1-8 x 24 Z8i+

[SCmackey]

Precision. Power. Confidence in the Field.

Offered here is a premium example of a modern dangerous game rifle: the Heym Express by Martini, chambered in .458 Lott—a caliber renowned for its authority on the largest and most dangerous game. This rifle blends traditional craftsmanship with rugged modern reliability, making it a trusted companion whether you're pursuing Cape buffalo in the Zambezi Valley or elephant in the Caprivi.

• Action: Heym’s proprietary Magnum Mauser 98-style action with integral recoil lug and controlled-round feed—engineered to cycle with absolute certainty under pressure.
• Barrel: 24" barrel with quarter rib and express sights, including one standing and one folding leaf, regulated for DG ranges.
• Stock: Select walnut stock with cross bolts, steel grip cap, shadowline cheekpiece, and proper drop for instinctive shooting. 14.25" LOP to a 3/4" Pachmayr Decelerator pad.

Swarovski Z8i+ 1-8x24 – Premium Dangerous Game Optic​

Offered with or separately from the rifle is a Swarovski Z8i+ 1-8x24, the premier low-power variable optic for dangerous game hunting. Featuring Swarovski’s widest-ever field of view and razor-sharp edge-to-edge clarity, this scope delivers unmatched target acquisition at close quarters—ideal for Cape buffalo, lion, or elephant.

Both are brand new never been fired or mounted. I ordered the rifle in January of 2024 for an Elephant and Buffalo hunt in March of 2025. Rifle was not delivered until April of 2025 so I was forced to purchase a different rifle for the trip and have decided to keep that one. The Scope was purchased at the same time as I ordered the rifle and has sat in its box in my gun safe since.

Combined Price $17,200. Rifle only $14,500. Scope only $3200.

What reticle does the swaro have?

 

[Buckums]

My Lord that’s exquisite.

[Whit]

That is a rifle you buy and keep for a lifetime.

Have a Heym SR30, and the quality is superb. Imagine it's even better on the Express series.

One of my dream rifles, but only in 416 or 404...someone is going to really get a good rifle. These don't pop up too often!

 

[BJH65]

My god, what a perfect setup for buffalo, elephant and hippo on land and anything else for that matter. What a great price, damn….doesn't get better than this.

 

[NIGHTHAWK]

If this were left handed…

Had to!

 

[Jager Waffen74]

Good Luck with the sale, am heavy on Big Bores but I would be all over this if I didnt have a .458 already. Unless someone wants to buy mine!! I have a matched pair of Guild guns in .458 & .35 Whelen!

What is the tube diameter of the scope 30mm or 34mm?

 

[Luvthunt]

Very nice!

 

[SCmackey]

What is the tube diameter of the scope 30mm or 34mm?

34 mm and the rifle is set up for talley rings

 

[Jager Waffen74]

34 mm and the rifle is set up for talley rings

Seems fishy that you don't know the tube diameter of your scope. It is a 30mm as I have 2 of these scopes

I have a 30 mm as well, but I believe that Swaro switched to 34 on these scopes.

Absolutely beautiful rifle!

Z8i+ is a 34mm tube. A little research goes a long way. This changed at least a couple years ago.

Older models are 30mm and are probably more sought after due to scope ring options but it’s possible to find 34mm rings for most rifles.

 

[SCmackey]

That is correct. This is a 34 mm tube. I thought I had private messaged the person who first asked the tube size question.

 

[SCmackey]

The rifle has been sold and the scope is still available

 

[WAB]

Congratulations on the sale. Absolutely stellar rifle.

 

[Dangerous Dave]

I am aware the scope was changed to 34 mm. That's why I asked I was looking for one with the 30mm rings.
