Dakota 76 Safari review In 1986, Don Allen and Pete Grisel created the Dakota 76. It combines the best features of the pre 64 Model 70 action with a Mauser type extractor along with a number of innovations that are strictly Dakota. Today, the Dakota 76 is one of the most desirable hunting rifles in the world, proven on every continent, in every climate, and on every type of game. It has deservedly taken its place among the legendary rifles of the 20th and 21st centuries. The Dakota 76 Safari features controlled round feeding and positive extraction; the extractor is underneath the locking lug and positioned at the end of the bolt so that it opens fully insuring that the next round feeds smoothly. The one piece trigger guard and hinged floorplate are machined from solid bar stock. Every Dakota 76 can be custom tailored to your size and tastes, with a wide range of optional features available Dakota 76 Safari specification Front island sight with flip-up night sight, rear island with blade Straddle floorplate with inside release, drop belly magazine with four round capacity Dakota Arms Dakota 76 Safari .375 H& H Rifle
