[QUOTE="Shoalwater, post: 1026880, member: 65420"] Here is the print for the 30 Nosler that I got from PTG today, I was told that Nosler has had the 27, 28, 30, 33, and 35 approved by SAAMI. I don't know if this is true or not as it seems to take SAAMI forever to update anything they approve. If I have done my calcs right, you should be able to seat the Berger 230gr Hybrid Target about .010" off the lands, giving you a bullet seating depth of .675" and a COAL of 3.590" You should be able to push that bullet a around 3000 fps out of a 28" barrel using Retumbo. Which for me, my elevation is around 1350' where I can get out to a mile, the bullet should stay supersonic to a mile. This is based on using the 2.590" case length and 99gr case capacity of the 26 Nosler. In theory the 30 Nosler should have a little more case capacity. Maybe one of you guys smarter than me can tell me if my numbers look right. [/QUOTE]
