Nosler 28 Reloading

[41rem]

Thinking about one for next Fall, anyone have some favorite loads?

“Favorite loads” is just a scary term to me. My rifle is different than yours and should be treated as such.
But in the spirit of your post-I love my 28. It shoots factory 175 ablr ammo extremely well and I have equaled that by using us869 powder and reusing the fired nosler brass, fed 215m primers. You can find your own seating depth. Good luck!

I also just got a 28 nosler about a month ago. I haven’t started load development yet, but we will see where it takes us. Mine is a BrowningX Bolt.

Maybe some velocity figures?

3150 fps-I don’t remember but I believe that was a 10 shot average. Good enough for an antelope this year as well but mine was trying to gore the truck so much
more like self defense than long range
I stepped away from eld-x as I felt like they were too frangible and have been much happier with the slightly heavier and bonded ablr bullets. My groups not quite as good as yours.
I am possibly going to rebuild my 7stw to a 28 nosler as well. I’m intrigued by the 30 nosler as well so will see where the money and options take me this year-
