[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 906800, member: 30902"] Rumors of barrel burning used to kill calibers, but we're decades past that. With modern steel, machining, and of course the nitiding processes available it's just not a major consideration any more except for high volume shooters. When I was young, word of mouth was it other than a handful of print publications. Today one has access to more information literally at their fingertips thanks to the internet than was available in the largest library in the world. Such rumors may scare off a few, but for those of us who seek high performance, flat shooting rounds we know what we're getting into. Personally I've been looking for a factory cartridge with this kind of 6.5 performance for a couple of decades and will most likely own one of the 26's within a few months of them hitting the market. There's also a large almost cult like following of 6.5 lovers that will likely be all over this round as soon as they can get rifles, or get them built, along with of course the brass and factory ammo. It will be a fad for a couple of years, and then we'll see what kind of lasting power it has. With a company like Nosler behind it's development and thus a guaranteed supply of brass and factory ammo for decades I strongly believe it will have great staying power in the market as long as the performance is as good as or better than advertised.
