I would go with the 28-Nosler over the 26
For me I would use it for pure hunting round. Saying that, it has enough gas to push the Nosler 175 grain Partition clean though most animals. The 160 class Nosler bullets would be great too.
I would still hunt the same. Getting close is always fun for me. Just knowing, you have the power to take large animals at longer range is a plus.
Something new to hunt with keeps a guy young.
Take care.
