In my own firsthand experience, Nosler factory ammo has been on the hotter end in the spectrum. I’ve shot all three brands mentioned at one point or another. I’ve never encountered anything resembling over pressure with Hornady or Weatherby. Nosler - 3 of 4 rifles exhibited stiff bolt lift and flat primers. 300 and 257 Bee, 35 Whelen and 28 Nosler. The Whelen was the only Nosler ammo that I didn’t find to be overly spicy. Four different rifles from three manufacturers. I shoot very little factory ammunition anymore but, for the price of brass these days, if I were to buy any factory ammo, I’d be wanting to retain good usable brass after one firing.
