.28 Nosler Trajectory Calculator
The .28 Nosler delivers magnum performance in a modern package. This trajectory chart follows a 163-grain bullet at 3,175 fps with a 100-yard zero, mapping performance out to 500 yards. Its high ballistic coefficient of .450 and impressive velocity make it an excellent choice for long-range hunting and precision shooting.
To match your specific load, click "Modify Calculation" below to input your exact specifications. Whether you're using factory ammunition or handloads, you can adjust for bullet weight, velocity, and environmental conditions to get precise trajectory data for your setup.
This data helps you understand your holdovers for both hunting and long-range target shooting. The .28 Nosler's efficient design and high velocity make it particularly effective when shooting at extended ranges where wind drift and bullet drop become significant factors.
