I just tried a new load on my 28 Nosler. Got my hands on a couple boxes of Barnes LRX 168 and tried them on my rifle. I went to Barnes webpage and their max load for those bullets is 87.8gr of RL-33 so I went a little lower. Tried 86.5 and this were the results.
4 shot group under 0.5 MOA @100 with awesome MV.
Rifle is a Rem 700 Ti action
26" Bartlein Sendero Fluted
Round magnum muscle break
Manners EH-1 stock
Zeiss V4 4-16x44 T-Moa30

I shoot 83.5 grains RE33 at 3150 FPS with the 168 LRX out of one of my 28's
I really think RE 33 is THE POWDER in this cartridge

Prieto9000 where did you find those 168's?? I've been trying to buy more for about 1.5 years and NO ONE has had any
 
Awesome grouping! I've got a friend of mine's 28 running the same bullet and velocity with VV24N41. I'm going to try and duplicate it in my 28 with Ramshot LRT. I'd love to find some RL33 but I've got to work with what I've got.

I have 24 here in a box that won't shoot in any rifles they were bought for. $15 plus cost of shipping and I'll send them to you. Not allot I know but might get you started.
