[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1705223, member: 101859"] I remember the days when the 28 Nosler would get 1000-1200 easy lol. In reality many got 500-600 before accuracy went down hill. When your pushing a lot of powder and using short necked cases they do not last long. Shooting more than 3 shots without letting them cool also speeds up wear. Which is not really a big deal if they are used for their intended purpose, hunting. If you want a dual purpose LR hunting/plinking rifle I would look at a 338, much nicer on the throats. Heres a 300 NI throat at exactly 100 rounds with H1000. Im a big fan of the 300 NI, 30-28 Nosler, and 30 Nosler, but I dont expect much more than 800-1000 from one. If I plan to shoot game at long distance with a rifle it has to be shooting its best. I think some just dont realize what it takes to make a hunting rifle group sub .5 moa at 1000 or farther. With that said if I could only have one rifle for lr hunting, it would be my 300 Norma improved 35. [ATTACH=full]148013[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
