30 Nosler freebore

[tthomp302]

Built a 28” 9 twist 30 Nosler for my brother. He’s wanting to run the 245 grain berger bullets. The reamer that was used has a .200 freebore and I’m wondering if that will be sufficient for these huge bullets. Does anyone have experience running these in the 30 Nosler?

The .200fb is pretty short for mag feeding with lighter bullets. Its a pretty simple operation to throat it out for whatever. If you dont have a throater manson usually keeps them in stock
