[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1847965, member: 7999"] I think the 28N is very close to a perfect cartridge. We have loaded quite a few of them. Depending on the barrel twist we have loaded them with 131g Hammer Hunters up to 169g Hammer Hunters. The most common that we load is the 143g Hammer Hunter at about 3600 fsp with N570. This is one of my most favorite combos. A legit 1000y elk round with a near 500y point blank range capability. Just think about being able to hold hair to 500y and then work your dial ups after 500y. How cool is that?!? Lets say that the barrel life is 600 rounds. I think it is much higher than that for a hunting rifle, but we will use 600 for arguing. If a guy shoots 25 shots per year in his hunting rifle that means this hunting rifle would last 24 years before needing to be re-barreled. For an awful lot of us that is long enough that it will be passed down to the next generation. Barrel burners are far too often over looked because of internet lore. Get the rocket sled and treat it right for a lifetime of fantastic hunting. [/QUOTE]
