[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2860896, member: 122164"] 3050 is the accuracy node where the bullets knaw a ragged hole. 3120 will shoot 1/2" but rougher on the AGD brass. I will take the accuracy with a bullet that performs well when it connects. I have had zero luck with the 150g LRAB, zero. I would love to know your load as I have two model 7s in 7/08 and a bunch of the 150s. I can not say for sure but I expect the barrel life to be in the realm of 800 rounds with the 28 Nosler, and I keep my barrel cool when testing, rubbing the barrel down with 50/50 rubbing alcohol and water, enough to have the water dripping off the bottom of the barrel, which cools the barrel extremely fast. When my leade gets long, I will go to a Sierra 160g BTSP which is very, very jump tolerant, and a wonderful killing bullet on deer and hogs. I am a Remington man, and I don't know how conducive to rebarreling the Brownings are, maybe best to trade them in and take the loss....we will see. With the Remington, I install a Wyatt's magazine box which gives me an additional .125, and they have another mag box that will give a length of 4.0", but I don't think that it is necessary. [/QUOTE]
