Want To Buy 375 H&H

WTB: Dakota .375 H&H Rifle

I am new to this forum and was referred here while searching for a Dakota .375 H&H rifle. I recently returned from my first safari and am preparing for another trip, and this rifle has been recommended to me by several people whose opinions I trust.


I am specifically looking for a Dakota chambered in .375 H&H in good condition. Open to discussing different configurations or models.


If you have one you may be willing to sell, or know of one available, please feel free to reach out.


Thank you,
BJ

Thanks for the reply, I have seen those but don't love the stock's on either.

I get it. They are not the best examples of Dakota Lumber.

Check out the Sportsman’s Legacy site in Kalispell, MT. He usually has a number of Dakotas.

Your assessment is correct. They are bare-bones models. Lackluster wood. No quarterib. No wrap around checkering. No case colors. No standing/folding leaf sight arrangement. No flip up front night sight. No checkered bolt. No jeweled extractors.

Do you need all of those things? No, but for similar money you'll probably find a better rifle that has some of those enhancements. To get all of those in one rifle, you'll need to budget five figures for certain.

Wonderful rifles and the perfect caliber. Our household has killed a lot of game with 375HH dakotas.

Rock Island auctions may be worth taking a look at.
Periodically, they’ll have quite a few old custom hunting rifles in 375 H&H.

This is good advice to check out Sportsman’s Legacy. He deals in some very nice rifles. In fact he has my George Hoenig 375 H&H for sale. It was built on a Winchester model 70 pre 64 action. He will have other 375’s for you to look at.

Sent you a private message as I have a "few" and are about ready to thin the herd out. Empire/incredible woodbeautiful. Couple Ruger RSM'S, Custom Brown built on pre64 Win...etc etc.
Also have a few dual caliber take downs in that caliber plus other big carts.

Let me know
