Re: Noslers new 6.5mm/.264" cartridge, the .26 Nosler!

Parent case, probably the 375 Ruger case. For ballistics refer to the 6.5x68 Schuler
There are 3 contenders for parent case ...
1. 375Ruger. (Nosler now offers brass). Using QL, the speeds aren't quite there with this case.
2. A shortened 300RUM or extended RSAUM ... Nosler offers all RUM brass. This would allow an entire family of cases unique to Nosler upto 45cal if they wanted and they'd fit all actions. If Nosler goes this way, I'll be buying a reamer post haste as any 7mmRemMag or 338WinMag will rechamber to equivalents of the 7mmSTW and 340Wby with absolute ease.
3. Nosler again goes absolutely unique and uses the 338NormaMagnum as parent case. Both companies work closely together.
Cheers...
