28 Nosler

[DRAKELIMIT]

Any thoughts on the 28 Nosler?

 

[Ryan Avery]

It's a hell of a round with the 195 berger in it.

What are your plans for it? Long range, targets, deer, elk, or unicorn?

 

[DRAKELIMIT]

Mainly deer and elk at longer distances

I think you will love it. The team that shot the best at the vortex challenge this year was shooting 28s with the 195s. While not my first choice for elk, it will easily get the job done.

Right now I'm shooting a 7MM rem mag and it seems to do the job fine, but im looking at building a rifle next year and thats one of the calibers I'd like to go with

When I finally draw a unicorn tag I'm buying one first thing

I have one long range 28 Nosler in use and another build on the way and with the 195 Berger I believe it's the perfect chambering for your intended use.

I was always told unicorn takes more marinating that the usual critter.

You won't be disappointed with the 28. Very versatile. Can load for heavy or light bullets.

No marinating required, just serve with Lucky Charms. It's a magically delicious combo.

I love mine. I bought a nosler factory rifle and have been super impressed with it. Ridiculously accurate with 175gn long range accubonds. I've only killed coyotes with it so far. Do have an antelope tag in late September. Will use it on whitetails this fall here as well. Not going elk hunting this year thanks to my recent wedding and honeymoon but will take it next fall.

Recoil is super manageable. Mine weight 8lb 7oz scoped.

My rifle is the same as 7stw'so above. My rifle shoots the same tiny groups but mine does it with the 160gr Accubond factory stuff. I love the rifle, feels great to shoot and carries well. Heavy enough to shoot well but not too heavy.

I have the same rifle in a 28 with a Vortex 6x24x50 with a custom turret. Can't wait to draw blood this season, good luck to all..

Fairly old thread, but I am interested in how you guys are liking the 28 Nosler and 160gr Accubonds. I have a 7mag and shoot them and love them. I'm just curious on how the increased velocity affects them at closer range, say 50yds on white tail. Thanks.
