[QUOTE="Huntnful, post: 2281066, member: 116563"] I wish I would have kept better, exact data on my 28 Nosler. But I'm right around 600 rounds +-50. Throat erosions is quite a bit, and I've babied it. No long shot strings ever, and always letting it cool down. It still shoots the 180 VLD targets and 169 Hammer Hunters into 1/2-3/4 MOA pretty consistently. But I feel like its day is coming soon based on how far out I need to seat bullets now. BUT, I also believe the hammer bullets will extend the accuracy period quite a bit. They don't care much about jump and they're pretty long (for the weight) with a fatter Ogive. So while my 180 VLD's don't even reach the throat any more while staying in the neck of the case, the 169's seat .200 into case neck still at the point of jam. And then I seat them .100 deeper. So what really causes the accuracy to fall off? Is it not being able to seat the bullets far enough out for the accuracy node anymore? Or something else? [/QUOTE]
