Gordons Reloading tool...28 Nosler

[Scalloper]

I just loaded the tool. I don't see 28 Nosler as a cartridge listed. Am I missing something?

I'm not seeing it in mine either.

I don't see 28 Nosler as a cartridge listed.

Just pick something close and adjust (the 7MM RUM is probably a good starting point).

I did a GRT simulation for a gal on a different forum, but I started with the 300 Rem Ultra Mag, which for some reason I thought was the parent case (for 26 Nosler)? I could be wrong, but that landed me at roughly the right case capacity.

ETA: Now I see what led me there as I have loaded for 26, 28 Nosler but do not own one.

I checked on DISCORD new-caliber forums and it is not there. I guess I made one for Nosler 26. I may be able to make a Caliber grt file for Nosler 28.

Best way is to start with 7 SAUM and update the dimensions accordingly.

What about starting with the 7 mm RUM and adjusting the Case length to 2.85',cartridge length to 3.556 and the case volume to 101.5 H2O?
Which is what my 28 Nosler is when loaded with a 168 VLD hunting and 77 gr H 1000.
I just wanted to see what my max powder charge should be.
77gr right now is doing 2990-3000 fps

In GRT, you need to change all parameters of the case and the chamber too.
