Description
The 28 Nosler is one of the hardest-hitting 7mm cartridges you can shoot, and good brass is where every accurate load starts. These Hornady cases give you a clean, consistent foundation for a cartridge that pushes high-BC .284 bullets at serious velocity out to extended ranges. Based on a beltless magnum design that fits a standard long action, the 28 Nosler rewards careful handloading, and this brass is made to hold up to it.
What Sets Hornady 28 Nosler Brass Apart
Hornady builds these cases to tight tolerances with uniform wall thickness, which benchrest reloaders have long understood is key to repeatable accuracy. The brass is measured for consistent wall concentricity to help the bullet seat straight in both the case and the chamber, and each lot is run through a pressure calibration check so the cases expand uniformly on firing. Consistent weight and internal capacity from one case to the next means your powder charges behave the same way shot after shot.
Prepping Your Unprimed 28 Nosler Cases
These arrive new and unprimed, so plan to run them through your normal prep routine before loading. A quick check and chamfer, a uniform trim to length, and seating your primers will have them ready to go. Because the 28 Nosler runs at magnum pressures, starting with quality brass and working your loads up carefully pays off in both accuracy and case life.
Built for Long-Range 7mm Performance
Handloaders running the 28 Nosler tend to favor heavier, high-BC bullets in the 160 to 195 grain range for elk, mule deer, and other big game at distance. Hornady's reputation for quality components means you can trust these cases as the backbone of a precision hunting or long-range target load. Treat them right and you'll get repeatable velocity and solid reloadability out of every piece.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Hornady 28 Nosler brass primed or loaded ammunition?
No. These are new, unprimed cases intended for handloading only. They contain no primer, powder, or bullet, so you'll need to prep and load them before use.
Do I need to trim or prep the Hornady 28 Nosler cases before loading?
It's smart to run new brass through your standard prep before the first load. A quick check of case length, a chamfer and deburr of the mouth, and seating a primer will get them ready. Since the 28 Nosler runs at magnum pressures, careful prep and working loads up slowly helps with both accuracy and case life.
What bullets work best in 28 Nosler brass?
The 28 Nosler is a 7mm (.284 caliber) cartridge that shines with heavier, high-BC bullets. Most handloaders building for big game or long range favor projectiles in the 160 to 195 grain range for the best balance of velocity and downrange performance.
How many cases come in a box of Hornady 28 Nosler brass?
