I’ve been looking at the ballistics. Pretty impressive stuff. Anyone have any personal experience with any of these? Don't own one but have shot a 28 Nosler. I have friends who have the Gunwerks rifles and they will shoot. 28 Nosler loaded with 180 gr Berger bullets and will shoot a sub 3" group at 800 yards haven't shot a 26 or a 30 yet. I know a guy who used a 28 to take an elk a couple weeks ago. Of the 3, I like the 28. But they also make a 33 Nosler, and I've got a few ideas for my next rifle build in a 33 Nosler.

None of those cartridges will do what some other cartridge won't do. The only one of the three that would raise any interest from me would be the 28 and only because you might be able to get the bullets to go in the magazine easier than a 7mm STW. Still not the fastest around.
All three.... Pure marketing. I'd pass... If you want something fast get a Weatherby they will always be leading this race.

Yes, these cartridges are really just a new package for the same ballistics you can achieve with others. The advantage is they are all designed to work with the new high BC bullets and still function in a standard length action, just the way a 6.5 creedmoor was designed to function in short actions. They have quickly gained acceptance with long range hunters, and cartridges like the 7STW have pretty much faded away. Nosler ammo and reloading components are high quality, which will also help determine their long term success.

Yeah dunno why i got the Nosler when I already own a 7mm STW. Might be because the wife seen me eyeballing it, and she offered to "Gift it to me"

I like the Nosler rifles they are good guns. I've seen plenty of custom rifles that are no better.

I’ve got a 26 in a Nosler rifle and a 28 in a Cooper rifle. Both are more accurate than I am and the ballistics are strong on both but not much different than a few other caliber choices.
