I'm gonna try the new 156 EOL in my 26 Nosler. Loaded to min jump, the COAL is 3.62", just barely fits in the Rem 700 box mag. Although the 26 Nos is a std. length 3.4" round, the longer full mag 700 box is handy.
I got load data from Berger, cut it back a bit, but it was way too hot with ejector marks, flat primers, shiny case heads and hard bolt opening. But, they shot very small groups. So, I've cut the loads back even farther and will try again. I think they'll be running around 2,950 or so now.
Should be interesting.
