Decided to work up a load for some Berger 180 VLD Targets in my 28 Nosler recently. The gun is throated for 195's, so the 180's sit with the boat tail slightly up in the neck of the case. I went just below pressure, and ended up at 3130fps. These things freaking SHOOT.
Yesterday I went out to 1120 yards to verify the BC of the bullet. My first two shots were a little high and left of the plate. I came down 1 MOA and held 2 MOA of wind and then printed this consecutive 3 shot group of 6". With only 3" of vertical separation. Pretty happy about it!! I shot the group off of a bipod and rear bag out of the bed of my truck.
The verified BC of the bullet is .375 G7 instead of the factory stated .350 G7
