True enough. Just watched a video of a 50 bmg rifle disassemble itself all around the shooter. He was incredibly fortunate to walk away
I'm going to cull these by weight. And order 100 pc of Peterson brass.
Has anyone noticed a different in the two?
I'm currently running once fired factory brass in a 28 Nosler and am seeing a larger variance in empty case weight than I'd like. Also an issue with work hardened necks is cropping up after just the initial firing. I've never seen that one before.

Ran it at 3250 fps today & SD dropped to 13 fps. It took an additional 1.5 grains of Reloader 26 think I'll stop here on this load as the last 3 shots went thru the same hole @ 100 yards.
This duplicates the Nosler factory 150 E-Tip load exactly
Here's a pic of my brake the TI Pro4 from...
Shot mine today with the new brake installed. Was running a 150 grain bullet @ 3250 over the Garmin. Recoil was greatly reduced, this mountain carbon is definitely more shootable now off the stand-up bench.
Had my electronic ear pro on so the sound was non factor but the concussion was...
Have one built on the model 48, it's Noslers Mountain Carbon. Tried a few shots with it just as it came & quickly decided I need some help with recoil management.
1st step was getting a brake, I went with a self timing design, a Salmon River Solutions TI Pro 4. Had the raw titanium finished...
Loaded up some 28 Nosler yesterday. Used 13 pc of my 1x fired Nosler Factory brass that all weighed 260 grains, used this load
Nosler 150 Ballistic tip
Reloder 26 @ 79.0 grains
Federal 215 mag primer
Expected muzzle velocity is 3200 fps, load is 3 full grains below maximum.
Will test them...
Got it on paper at 100 yards recoil is definitely a thing. Like the LRHS up on top even if it weighs in at 27 oz
Here are the last 2 shots, muzzle velocity was 3225 using the 150 E-Tip Factory Load

Picked up some Nosler 175 ABLR and 150 Ballistic tips, l have 70 empty cases currently. Will try H1000 Retumbo & Grand with the 175, then something a bit faster for the 150, possibility Reloder 26
Just mounted up a 4.5-18x in those 30mm Talley lightweights will test it at 100 & 200 yards...
My rifle is on the way. It's coming with 4 boxes of Nosler ammo 60 of the E-tips load & 20 of the 160 grain Accubond.
I'll use the E-tips to get my scope zero in start at 100 & work my way out to 500 on the local range.

Just purchased 100 pc of Starline .270 Winchester for $51 that includes shipping. Looking forward to trying it but won't be till Spring 2026
I'm currently running a 200 pc batch of Hornday, all of them are @ 1X fired. As my loads are always near book maximum they will only last 3 loadings or...
