SOLD/EXPIRED F/S Incredible Dakota Model 10 .260 Rem. (Photos uploaded now)***SOLD***

[ghay]

This is #3 of 4 Dakota Rifles up for sale to help fund a good cause.

This is by far the most beautiful rifle I have ever owned, held, shot and maybe ever seen. I am going to miss just getting it out of the safe and just bringing it to my shoulder. It just exudes quality and "feel". On top of that, it really shoots. I have not gotten to fire more than 75 rounds in break in and preliminary load development but it will be a shooter for sure.

Action: Dakota's proprietary "falling Block " type single shot. It is color case hardened including the lever, grip cap and trigger guard.

Scope/Rings/Bases: Rings and Bases are Talley and the scope is a Leupold VXIII
2.5 x 8 x36.

There are a couple of very tiny handling marks I couldn't get to show up in the photos but otherwise it is "as new".

The barrel is 23" long and has a barrel band sling swivel.

The wood stock is an exceptional "AAA" grade but is easily as pretty as any I have ever seen.

If you're not familiar with these rifles, I can only say it is the handiest little gun I've ever shot. One rifleman I know said "it's like picking up a fine fly rod when you pick up a Model 10". I couldn't agree more.

Price: $4495

I am going to try to get photos on line tonight if possible.

Thanks for looking,
Gary

Thanks for the pictures! Sometimes we focus so much on the practical, we miss out on the fact a fully functional work of art is possible. If it was mine just holding it would put serious wear on it.

Believe me guys, it's quality is obvious when you shoulder it and it feels as good as it looks. On top of that it shoots like a dream. I'll miss it for sure...

Two points:
1. This is about as fine of a firearm that you will ever shoulder.
2. The price for which it is offered is GREAT.

Other than owning two Dakota Model 10's and appreciating their quality, I have no dog in this hunt.

Thanks HEB330, its quite unlike any other rifle i've ever owned... light,but not too much so. Barrel plenty long enough to get the most out of your rounds but at the same time feeling very compact and handy. Feels solid but not clunky. Trim and streamlined, shoots really well...and she's a "looker".
