Thoughts on this wood “Heym”

Yo
They sell prettier rifles. Just not for $10k.
Youre right! $13k plus wood upgrades. If I can get the above rifle for a deal I’ll buy but won’t be spending new $ on a used rifle.

I totally agree; however, I find myself drawn to the rifle you posted. If I weren’t going you know where soon I might be a player on it.
 
How much is the seller asking? For 10k you can get a new one from Chris and pick your wood. Beautiful wood definitely adds to the enjoyment of hunting with a fine rifle. That having been said, I think the pictures still don’t do it justice. Lighting is better but it’s still somewhat low resolution making the wood look grainy. Bet you it looks much better in person.
 
I feel that! Keep that $ and enjoy!

No sir you can’t..... Spoke to Chris regarding just that. It’s 13 plus wood upgrade.
The rifle the way I want is $13800 but for that I’d buy a double.
Or join @JHT soon!

I do agree though that the lighting is killing the pictures and making it look worse.
 
It is also my understanding that $10k won’t touch a new one from Chris although he does have a surplus I’m told.

True. He is down on 404s but does have a surplus of 416s. He told me that he may offer something like a “discount” soon.

The PH model went for $10K when I bought mine in 2020. They have plain wood, much like this rifle. I paid $12K for mine with upgraded wood. It was beautiful.

Yes yours was gorgeous!! I should have bought it!
If I could buy a rifle like yours new for I would be showing everyone pictures!

Unfortunately I’m only looking for a 404 in the express or 450-400 /450 NE double.
 
I haven’t bought one in a few years so I’m probably a little behind on the price. They usually have a DSC show special that cuts the price a bit or throws in a scope. 12k with upgraded wood sounds about right.
