@Tom Erickson i would pickup a pound of H1000 and retumbo for your 28.
Run the numbers w/a 145 grain barnes LRX @ 3300 FPS.
Vs.
berger 195 @ 3100 FPS.
both achievable with given powders.
you'll find out to 600 yards wind drift is only about 1 MOA difference w/a 10 mph cross wind. the berger will retain a bit more velocity (not much)
I like the less recoil and flatter trajectory of the Barnes myself. Given the great results I've had with the Barnes LRX they get my vote!
