Picked Up Heym Martini Express 416 Rigby

[BJH65]

Picked up my Heym Martini Express 416 Rigby a couple days ago. It does appear to be in new condition as described online. Having never handled one before, it is a very slim rifle and feels very lively in my hands compared to the CZ 550 and Brno’s I have. Really nicely put together rifle.

I went ahead and ordered some Talley QD 30mm 19mm rings and a Leupold Patrol 6HD 1-6x24mm 30mm Fire Dot Duplex scope from EuroOptic, they still have them on sale for $699, I’m shocked they still have them. I think this will make an ideal setup and I look forward to putting some rounds down range.

Ralf Martini, who designed that rifle, has left his own business which he formerly carried on in British Columbia, and has moved to Hamburg, where he's now doing the same for Hartmann & Weiss.

While Ralf is German, he has a special affinity for English rifle design, and that was what he modelled the Heym by Martini on. A wonderful rifle - I hope you have many adventures with it!

Ypu all that know these rifles, what are give aways, design wise, that are different on the martini versus their previous version?

Thanks gents, as some or maybe most of you already know, it was a once in a lifetime acquisition for the price! I’m kind of a CZ/ Brno, Winchester M70 kinda guy, so actually handling a nice high quality rifle like this is really cool. I really am looking forward to getting the scope mounted and shooting it!

I have one in .404 Jeffery that is the nicest handling rifle that I own. It is perfectly balanced.
Enjoy your new purchase!
