I will say no, absolutely not. But this ought to be fun.

Is the Dakota 76 action worth the extra money versus a m70 or CZ when building a .375 or .416??

My vote?.....NO...NOT...NADA...how else can I say it?

The Dakota 76 has tighter tolerances, superior steel, a better trigger, is lighter and has the inherent value of being a semi-custom creation as opposed to a factory production like, for example, the Win Model 70. Whether the Dakota is "worth the extra cost" depends on your own private cost-benefit analysis.
