I purchesed a 28 Nosler 48 Nosler Long Range rifle a few months back. It was a piece of crap that was throated wrong had a short mag and wouldn't shoot a sub 6" group at 100 yds. Nosler agreed and to their credit refunded my money in full No more dicking around this time I ordered a Piercecision Rifle in 28 Nosler specs as follow Kelbly atlas tactical action, Manners eh1 in swamp camo, Proof carbon barrel, self timing 5 port “Muscle” brake, Bix’n Andy Tacsport trigger, Hawkins bottom metal and a Bushnell 4x18 LRHSi scope bedded into some Hawkins rings. It is throated for 195gr Bergers Scheduled to arrive next week

Great choice! Ryan is an amazing gunsmith and knows the 28 very well. I'm sure it will be a shooter. Are you handloading?

Yes to the Proof Ryan's suggestion although thats what I was leaning towards Should weight in a tad under 10lbs all up

RL33 and the 195s hammer in my rifle. Retumbo and N570 are also good choices.

Dan,
Too bad about the Nosler but sounds like they treated you right except for the lost load development time. Good luck with this new one. When does it go to the field on the first hunt?

Dan, that thing is sweet.... My boss just had a 30 nosler built similar. Stiller in a Mcmillan with proof CF topped by a NF 5-22. He promptly took it to Africa and had 13, 1 shot kills. He's sold.

I always thought for the money those nosler rifles would shoot good with the components they build with. That is a great looking rifle Ryan built, everything I read appears that guy has the 28 nailed. ........

With the Proof cf barrel and CF Manners it’s probably +/- 9#. Mine is similar but built on a 700 action and edge game Scout. 9lb 4oz as pictured with the 5.5-22 nxs.
