Lightweight 28 nosler question

[ltsheets]

I have a rem 700 TI I'm considering building off of. Might open the boldface to handle a mag cartridge. I love the 28 nos but haven't shot it in a light platform. The build would be a proof build with a break and weigh less than 6.5 lbs likely (bare rifle). I'm curious if anyone has shot a rifle that weighs 7.5 or less scoped with a break in a 28 or similar cartridge and what it was like. I've shot a sub 7 lb scoped 30-06 and can handle it. Just curious how a light mag with break compares.

Recoil should be around a 243 with a good break.

U think so on such a light rifle?

No

My RUM was around 9.5 scoped and was probably about like a 270

Recoil with a break will be fine.

That's closer to what I thought but the build scoped wouldn't be more than 8lbs max and most likely less than 7.5 scoped.

It should be around a 243. My buddy's Tikka T3 lite 300 win with a break has a recoil of 243. It all depends on how good the break is.

I hopefully can give you a better answer by next Saturday. I pick up my 28 Nosler this coming Wednesday, plan on shooting it Saturday. I went with a Proof not sure on final weight of the rifle.

It will be manageable but still heavier recoil than 270 being that light. That's a lot of powder to burn
