Ruger Magnum – .458 Lott w/ Heavy Barrel & Vortex Strike Eagle
Description:
Formidable Ruger Magnum – .458 Lott w/ Heavy Barrel & Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x
Built to handle the world’s most formidable dangerous game, the Ruger Magnum bolt-action rifle is a modern classic of stopping power and reliability. Chambered in the devastating .458 Lott—a cartridge designed to out-penetrate and out-perform the older .458 Winchester Magnum—this rifle provides the ultimate insurance policy for hunting thick-skinned heavyweights like elephant, rhino, and Cape buffalo. As an added benefit of the chamber design, this rifle can also safely chamber and fire standard .458 Winchester Magnum ammunition for practice or lighter game.
Featuring Ruger’s legendary Mauser-style controlled round feed action, a heavy-contour barrel to tame recoil, and a massive claw extractor for guaranteed reliability, this rifle is built like a bank vault. Paired with a fast-acquiring Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x24mm Low Power Variable Optic (LPVO), you have a setup perfectly optimized for rapid, both-eyes-open shots in the brush or precise bullet placement at extended distances.

Condition Report
This Ruger Magnum is in excellent, lightly used condition. It has been fired enough to sight in the optic and perhaps taken on a single safari, displaying only very minor handling marks.
- Finish: Retains 95%+ of its original factory bluing. There is slight edge wear on the bolt handle knob and the floorplate from normal carrying, and a few minor rub marks on the barrel. Absolutely no rust or deep pitting.
- Bore: Pristine. The bore is bright and shiny with robust, sharp rifling. Shows no signs of heavy copper fouling.
- Wood: The heavy walnut stock is in fantastic shape. The dual recoil cross-bolts are perfectly flush. There are a few light, superficial compression marks on the belly of the stock and forend from shooting sticks or a gun rack, but there are no cracks, splits, or structural issues.
- Mechanics: The massive controlled-round feed bolt cycles smoothly and positively strips rounds from the magazine. The claw extractor is in perfect condition. The floorplate latch holds securely under heavy recoil. The trigger breaks cleanly and predictably.
- Optic: The Vortex Strike Eagle is in like-new condition. The lenses are crystal clear and free of scratches, the illuminated reticle functions flawlessly, and the magnification dial turns smoothly.
Included Accessories
- Optic Setup: Includes the mounted Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x24mm scope. It is mounted using Ruger’s famously robust, proprietary integral steel scope rings, which lock directly into the receiver’s machined dovetails.
- Sling Hardware: Comes equipped with a barrel-band front swivel stud—a hallmark of true dangerous game rifles—and a standard rear stud in the stock.
- Note: This listing includes the rifle and optic combo; no original factory cardboard box or manual is included.
