I just have a custom 28 Nosler built and was wanting to pick everyone brain a bit. I've read a ton of other threads on LRH as well as other forums but haven't seen any super recent data with proven results. I know @rpierce has had a ton of experience and I have chatted with him a bit. Let me know any and all information you have on 28 Nosler loads with heavy bullets.
