Dakota 76, Kimber, or something else...

I think “quality” is subjective. I haven’t owned a Dakota, only handled a few. If you were looking at a .416 Rigby or other DG cartridge, I’d say Dakota is a great value. In .300wm, I think you’ll be happy with a Winchester.
Understand but will it as good a quality of a Dakota? I don’t know
 
Parkwest now builds the old Dakota actions and rifles. I have 4 and they are well worth the price. Accurate, smooth, balanced.
 
Your 4K may also get you someone else’s custom
 
For that price you might consider a semi-custom from Matrix Gunsmithing. On a limited basis, he plans to offer an African Safari Classic full featured
Rifle using CZ 550 magnum or medium actions.
 
I have 2 Kimbers in 375 HH and Altho they are older rifles and have been hunted they have never given any issues.
Only issue I see today is they have appreciated approximately 2/3 times what I paid originally

Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
