I'm in the market for a Dakota 10.

Needs to have a quarter rib, LOP of at least 13 3/4.

Calibers 7mm Dakota, .284 Winchester, 7mm WSM, 7x57, 280 Rem, 280 AI, .22LR, perhaps a .308 Win.

Might consider others. Not interested in magnum calibers of .308 or greater or anything .25 or below unless the rifle is a good candidate for a rebarrel.

If you've seen my custom rifle posts here you know I'm picky when it comes to walnut.

PMs please, thanks.

Those are beautiful rifles but ones I never see listed. Reach out to First Stop in South Dakota. They stock a nice selection of high end rifles. I hope to visit there again this summer.

Mark and I have done business on two previous Dakota 76 bolt actions. Great guy to deal with.

Thomas, that's a beauty!

Any interest in a 257 Weatherby?

I know the LOP was at least 14” If I remember right it had all the goodies. Octagon barrel also..

It’s not mine, but I saw one the other day at a gun shop.

Let me know and I will dig up the contact info.

As you know, the quarter rib will be a very hard find. Good luck on your search.

Beautiful rifles gents.

Ed, to my eye the rifle doesn't look correct without the rib.

There is a 7mm Dakota on gunbroker I'd chase, however the asking price is unreasonable.

I agree on the quarter rib. Just not many out there IME. The M10 is still one I'd like to own.
