Saw this and remembered your post, not exactly what you’re looking for but very close

Savage 116 Safari Express .458 Win Mag

Hello, I am looking to part with my 116 safari express in .458 win mag to make room for a new big bore rifle in another caliber. Being that I will be switching calibers, this rifle will come with about 40 rounds of once fired Hornady brass as well as a full RCBS die set. If you have any...

I don't need this gun, I don't need this gun, I don't need this gun, I don't need this gun

that one has way too high a price ... here is what mine sold for at RIA - $881 which included the 22.5% buyers premium .. actual hammer was $725

I agree that the guy is proud of his. That's the highest price I've ever seen for a Savage Safari Express.

I would pay double that if it was a 425 express

Yea, it's probably gonna be that or more if you can find one.

About a year ago I thought about buying a 300 winnie I saw to match my 458, but I didn't and I would've never thought there were 425's even manufactured by Savage, but you shed some light on that, which is pretty cool. I sure hope you find one.

Well, I found a guy on a different forum that said he has one ... I offered him $5,000 for it ... he declined, so ..... I suspect he really didn't have one after all.

Well I'd say you are correct that "he really didn't have one" with passing on that offer.
