[QUOTE="tonechaser88, post: 2286352, member: 119065"] Seems like you see a lot of folks chasing that longer mag box to fit these longer bullets without eating into the case capacity too much. While the 28 nosler is a great cartridge and has enjoyed a ton of success and popularity, the 33 nosler was designed just a bit shorter so it could utilize the 250+ class bullets with higher BCs and still fit in a standard length magazine. Turn the page and the extremely popular hunting bullets from hammer have a ton of great options in those higher weight classes but they get so long that it’s difficult to fit them in a standard length mag. Enter the 33 nos improved case, I think the 40 degree shoulder would give it better consistency and gain just enough FPS out of the shorter case to maybe even catch up to 300 PRC velocities (30-33 nosler improved) but able to be chambered in a standard length box. It’s probably an insanely expensive idea that would prove me wrong in so many ways but the concept seems too fun to not try ! [/QUOTE]
