26 Nosler Loads anyone?

[Heather]

Well I couldn't find anyone who had the 129 ABLR bullets so I'm ending up going with the 142 grain ABLR upon customer's request. Does anyone have a good load worked up? I heard these 26 noslers are pretty picky. I'm thinking of using N570 I have 24 lbs of it because I use it for a lot of my loads.

Heather, the only load data I could find used Retumbo, WC872, 869.

Hopefully someone has your data to help you out.

This is from Nosler

Thanks!
Little update the guy changed his mind for some 130 grain accubonds because I heard better results with them.
He's using a browning x bolt.

Accept for the LRT powder velocity. With Vihtavuori N560 I can reach those velocities with my 28" barrel 6.5 PRC. Next trip to the range I'll try the LRT

Update:
I had to do some work on figuring out what powder charge would be right since I found no load data. Started out at 79.5 grains on N570 which is pretty light definitely the minimum load there
I just heard back from my friend last night and he said they did extremely well. No chronograph and I don't have pictures of the grouping yet but am delighted they did well with all the bad things I've heard of the 26 nosler being so picky

Seems that everyone likes the 872 pull down powder, I bought a 26 Nosler and the majority of the recommended loads used that powder.

Good to hear about your results, thanks for the update.
