[QUOTE="rpierce, post: 1662163, member: 20643"] I threw together a 30-28 nosler for myself. Figured with the several hundred 28 noslers Ive made for customers that they will want something a little more barrel friendly when the barrels shot out. I put a proof carbon barrel on it. Kelbly atlas action and a manners eh1. I only use Kahles scopes. I did a ladder test and saw where it wanted to be shot. First group after the ladder test had .162" vertical at 400 yds, .038 moa vertical. First two shots went in the same hole. Third one the wind moved over 1" to the left. I figured that would work for a load. H1000 with a 215 berger at 3075 fps and ADG brass. Primer pockets were super tight after that load. Anything over 3100 started to exhibit some pressure signs. I know I could hit 3150+ fps easily with Reloader 33 or n570. A couple weeks later I took it to 950 yds. First shot hit the left side of the steel. I made a windage correction and shot a 3 shot group that measured 1.5" @ 950 yds. I thought maybe it was a fluke. I shot another 3 shot group. The first two were in the same splotch on the steel target. The wind moved the 3rd one to the right 3". Id just shot 7 shots with under 3" of vertical at 950 yds off the bipod. It was definitely one of the easiest cartridges to find the load for that I have seen. Same load has shot awesome in the last couple 30-28 noslers I test fired for customers. [/QUOTE]
