Differences between a Dakota 76 Rigby and non-Rigby action

B_Easy, if really wanting a lefty Dakota action to build into larger magnum, this isn’t a 450 Rigby, but also isn’t “not” cool. Sorry, had to work in the positive double-negative. Looks interesting at the very least and significantly less than you could build it for. No ties to the gun, just stumbled by it.

Thanks for the link, I'll check that one out.

There is a very nice LH Dakota 76 in 416 Rigby coming up for auction I would consider.
Dan Morphy Auctions
Thanks for the info. I noticed its SN R0044L....SN R0045L just sold at auction recently. I guess I could have had a consecutive pair had I been more proactive :(.

That would have been a great pair of rifles to have. Good luck on your search. There is a very nice Dakota left hand 30-06 for sale in the same auction. Would make a great DG/PG arsenal.

Hello! I saw your post from last year about a missing crate from your hunt in Moz. I am curious how that all turned out? We (my fiancé and I) also hunted in Moz in 2024 and the trophies are being shipped with Hunters Services Limitada. We have some concerns on whether we will get the trophies home or not. May I ask who you hunted with?
