[QUOTE="WahooYahoo, post: 1847749, member: 94632"] Friends don’t let friends buy 28 Noslers. There are several WAY better options. Since the Op question is too broad, vague and opinion based to answer directly, let me say that the 28 Nosler was designed to shoot 168 gr like a laser. In fairness, with added freebore it is a beast with 195’s for sure (or you could just shoot 100 rds for barrel break-in and would then gain enough throat erosion to seat long bullets). In the encyclopedia next to the word “overbore” is a picture of the 28 Noz. The chamber is so poorly designed that after every box of cartridges fired (20) the free bore is measurably longer. If you consider the cost of a decent barrel, chambering and smith work, call it $800, it costs $2 in barrel life with every shot. there will be lots of retorts to this post, but there is no good reason to settle on a 28 Nosler.
