[QUOTE="LongBomber, post: 1341779, member: 14435"] After having a couple the 26 is too much of a good thing. I found them finicky to load for, performance isnt really any better than what you can get from a gap4s/wsm size case. Or at least very little gain from what guys with thise claim and what I could get with my 26's. The 28 will stay- it is the right case length to seat the long bullets out and fit in a standard long action without single loading. And it is a happy medium of performance and recoil- not unlike what helped make the 7 rem mag popular. The 30 is a crowded market- not much of a gap to fill there and the win mag is a pretty established case. The 33 is also the perfect length to seat the long bullets out and still fit a rem (or clone) long action. From the bit I shot mine so far- its a step above the win mag for sure, and seems about 100fps under my edge ai. To seat bullets matching the boat tail to the case neck/shoulder the edge would be over 4"oal where the nosler is close to 3.7" (i seated a few like that but dont remember the coal off the top of my head) Which can be run without single loading- run an edge at 3.7" oal and your advantage over the nosler shrinks a tad. All that said without putting some rifles and brass for it in shooters hands it wont go anywhere. [/QUOTE]
