I a have a Christensen Arms Classic in 28 Nosler. It is equipped with a Huskemaw scope 5 x 20 x 50 that I bought form long range store.
TSP rings , Trigger tech special trigger , McMillan A 3 Sporter stock. This rifle shoots very well for me shooting it 1/2 group would better with better shooter. I am shooting 180 VLD AND H1000. I bought everything new in July last year it has never been hunted with and about 80 - 100 rds. I have factory hard case it was shipped in. It does not have the factory bolt knob didn't like it gave it to a friend. I am selling to fund another project. I have in total cost in the rifle 5400.00. I would sell complete package for 4500.00 shipped to your FFL from private individual. I will offer the buyer brass and Whidden bushing dies for extra cost. I would sell just rifle and me keep scope and rings for 3200.00 shipped the same way. USPS money order or cashiers check.

TTT Price drop 200.00 and I will throw in 120 pc once fired brass some twice fired will have to count all brass to be sure. And a set of whidden bushing dies. That is an extra 425.00 plus for you.
 
Only 76 grains? Seems like not very much.. my reloading book says R33 can go up to 86 grains with a 180 and get 3150-3200 FPS, you must have some mild loads or H1000 is a lot less dense than I thought (I've never used it)

Sammi chamber wont take those pressures usualy to get to 3200. Throat it out and you would have 3200, but if it shoots 1/2 at 3k what more you need?!

Throated long and you can get the 195's to 3200, 180's can get 3250 according to Ryan Pierce, 3300 if you push them til you get a little ejector mark on the brass. And saami you can get a lot more than 3000 for sure.

Ok I just checked the Nosler reloading manual, they didn't have the 180 but it had the 175 LRAB, which has a very similar bearing surface and is within 5 grains of the 180 so results will be similar.
It said you can go up to 88 grains of R33 and get 3211 FPS with a 175. I bet with the 180 you could get 88 ish grains of r33 and get 3170 or so, maybe 3200 if you push til you get slight pressure signs.
