they didn't have a standard 7 rum to compare the 26 nosler too. they did have a board with 6.5x55,6.5/284, 264 win, 26 nosler to compare. all looked about same lengthy. the nosler guy was shocked when he found out a custom rifle maker at the show had a rifle in 26 nosler.

talk to the nosler guy at the Harrisburg pa show today the 26 nosler is a 7mm rem ultra mag cut and necked to 6.5. the dummy round he had was marked 7mm rem ultra mag. he said barrel life was no different then that of any other 6.5 round, and the average shooter would not shoot out the barrel.

I told the man from nosler that people been saying it was based on a 375 ruger and he said their was a lot of bad info going out about it. they really wanted to keep the parent case a secret as long as they could. this dummy round I seen was the same one they had at the shot show, marked 7mm rum.

Either way it's just a one off round that won't do anything a 264 Win Mag cant...

ruger made the mark 2 Magnum in 416 Rigby that is a longer case then the 7 rum. it's the same action only the stock is beaver and pulled bed and the barrel has express sights. the action length is the same as the 7mm rem.
