Christensen 30 nosler or 28 nosler

[jruff002]

Looking at ridgeline 30 nosler. Any of y’all own one and shoot the 210 ABLR? If not what other heavy bullet y’all shot? Read the one guy from long range review on it shooting the Berger but I’m wanting good long range moose bullet

I have no info. But I do have a brand new 30 Nosler Ridgeline I’m going to get rid of if you are interested.
Sorry for the hijack.

Also considering the 28 nosler, anyone shooting the 175 ABLR in it?

I would go with the 30 N hands down of the two mentioned. The barrel life on the 30 is bad enough even for a hunting rifle, the 28 is just worse. I took this moose at 1033 yards with a 215 Berger with my 30N. The bullet worked perfectly. You may recognize the guys that got me on him. Pic was taken pretty close to where we shot from.

If I was looking to buy a Ridgeline in a .30 cal magnum, I'd buy a Win Mag, or a PRC. The 30 Nosler will be the one left out in the cold, IMO.

The 28 is also a good choice, has much greater market penetration than the 30, which will insure a supply of good ammo and components in the future.

The barrel in the post above was a 30N and is dead. The rifle has just got a new CarbonSix barrel and is now chambered in 300 win mag. I have seen the light.

what is the barrel life on a 30N?

what is the barrel life on a 30N?

Running a 215 at 3100 fps and no long shot strings, mine made it 650 to 700.

Edit to add. Ryan Furman's first 30N died at 700 as well.

What if one was to run only h1000, I wonder what the barrel life would be?

What’s the life on a 300 WM?

 

[elkguide]

I have 3 - .300 WM's that have over 2000 rounds down each of them and the bore scope shows virtually no erosion and none of them have suffered any accuracy loss..
My .300 RUM is showing wear after just 950 rounds.

I love barrel life threads. I would put them right up there with FFP and SFP threads and Moa vs mil threads.

A guy burns out a barrel in xxx amount of rounds and suddenly that’s the end all of what that particular cartridge’s barrel life is.

What powders were used, bullet bearing surface, heat, pressure, barrel manufacture, rifling profile, don’t matter at all apparently.

It could actually be argued that if you run a 30 nos and a 300 wm at the same velocity with the same powder and bullets that the 30 Nos will outlast the 300 wm due to lower pressure and longer neck.

The only way to actually know anything factual would be two identical barrels from the same steel run, shot with the same powder at the same rate of fire. Anything else is just bro science.
