[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1587129, member: 26077"] I have had 6 NULAs, still have 2 of them. They would all do 1/2 MOA easily. The 2 I still have will one hole 3 shots. They are my go to hunting rifles for everything up to and including big Canadian Moose. I have not shot a 28 Nosler but I do have a 7 RUM. I would never chamber that round in a light weight gun. The 7 RUM is the most vicious kicking round I ever shot. I am not recoil sensitive and I own a 460 Bee, 375 Ruger, 338 Lapua etc., so my dislike of the 7 RUM is balanced by having shot a lot of other supposedly harder kicking guns. My 7 RUM is a factory Rem 700 Stainless Steel BDL in LH with 26" barrel, laminated stock and weighs about 9 1/2 pounds scoped. It will shoot under 1/2 MOA so can't complain about the accuracy The kick of the RUM is a very sharp hit and it would give me a headache after 10 rounds. I finally had to put a brake on the gun to be able to shoot it off the bench but I will NOT hunt with a brake so I also put a mercury recoil suppressor and a Pachmyer pad on the gun. The mercury suppressor adds almost a pound so kind of defeats the lightweight idea but it and the pad did tame the recoil down a bunch and made it more of a push than a sharp wack. If you are going real lightweight you are going to have to put a brake on a 28 Nosler. My suggestion would be go 7 Rem mag or 280 if you want an accurate lightweight rifle. [/QUOTE]
