Just seeing what everyone else is running in there 30 nosler. 220 berger 230 berger ect. I run a .162 freebore reamer
 
205 elites in mine. They shoot awesone. I'm using RL26 @3060 fps. Could probably go hotter but there no real reason for it from what I can see.
 
@Liddy how many grains of n568 you run if you don't mind?
I have three 30 Nosler's, all of them were chambered with a .225 freebore reamer. All of them started with ADG virgin brass all three were right at 88gr of VV N568 to get to 3,050fps. Once fired ADG brass they were all different grains to get to 3,050fps. One is @ 88.5, one is @ 88.8 and the third one is @ 89.0. I did not have time do a ladder on any of the three prior to hunting last season but they all had ES in the teens and single digit SD's. All of them shot exceptional groups at 200, 600 and 800 yards. I will fine tune this winter.

My 30 Nosler has 0.170" freebore. So far I've only shot two bullets from the gun. A Berger 210 VLDH and a Matrix 210 VLD.

H1000 and RL26 are the two powders I've used so far.

18.5" Bartlein 5R barrel has netted me some pretty good velocity from that short barrel (Remington XP-100) with the faster loss running 2800+ FPS.

All three of my 30 Nosler's are using a 26" Proof CF barrel
