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

Read a 4 page article on this 26Nosler last night---it states, it is about a 10% improvment even over the 264 W Mag...is that enough to justify a new rifle??? its about the same the 280AI has over the 280 Rem. and they sure seem to be a hit..

Per the article, they are capable of pushing 130gr Accubonds around 3500fps...also it stated they are contemplating coming out with a 140gr Long Range Accubond for this which will have an incredible BC...

IMHO, new stuff is fun to check out, use, etc..if you like it good for you, if you want to go back to whatever you were using before that is fine as well..have no doubt they will sell a bunch of these especially if cheaper models are available..thing the $1600 or above price point will affect sales ..

This thing will be an incredible antelope, deer, elk gun in the west...
