Does anyone have any load data for this combination? Can't seem to find much of anything anywhere for it.

Sometimes it's easier to find something close to use as a substitute for the combination you're looking for. Barnes lists the 6.5-300 Weatherby which is almost exactly what the 26 Nosler is (one grain difference), especially if you start low and work your way up to the pressure level of your firearm. Note that this information is from a 24" barrel:
I have also used the Hammer Hunter in the 124 grain version which is excellent. I have their 137 on hand but time is working against me right now for testing.

79.5-80gr of rl33 works well in my rifle, 80.5gr was a definite max load.
Around 90gr of us869 was also a max load.
You should be able to get right around 3500fps from a 26" barrel, pretty effect little bullet at those speeds.

Thank y'all for the replies. LongBomber yeah I have a 28" barrel hoping to get some good speed with them. What's your COAL?
