Nosler cartridges

[mjcmichigan]

Anyone using the Nosler family? 26, 30, or 33 Nosler cartridges?

Then if yes, what's your rifle? I see Nosler and Christiansen is making it...

Do you think the family will catch?

Not here, but if I were selecting a big game cartridge for western North America and I wanted a factory (not wildcat) chambering I would look hard at the 28 Nosler. The 26 is good too but there are a bunch of really good 7 mm bullets

If the number of rifles being built by a local custom shop is any indication, it looks like the 26 and 28 are doing well in norther BC and Alberta. I know that they were excited when the 26 came out, but are even more impressed with the 28. If I didn't already have great rifles in 280 and the STW, I would probably be
looking at it.

I haven't talked to them about the 30 or 33 yet.

When I get to the point to replace the 338 Win Mag, I may take a hard look at the 33 Nosler before starting the project.

Talked to the custom shop today about the 30 and 33 Nosler. They have built a few 30's and so far the reports are very good. Sharp recoil akin to the 300 Wby in lightweight rifles, so be prepared if you are not a fan of recoil. They have not yet played with the 33.

Interesting side note;
They are having some real problems with the factory 6.5-300 Wby rifles and factory ammo...4 rifles and cannot get much better than 4 MOA. Needless to say they have one very unhappy customer!

I have a 26 Nosler. It's a Fierce Carbon Edge. I'm shooting 130 Berger VLD's at 3340 with 74 grains of Retumbo. I'm getting sub 1/2 MOA with it currently. A lot of 26's and 28's have been built and are being built.

That is quite the headgear on the buck. Congratulations.

Thank you. My first shot at an animal with my 26.
