[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 938388"] Well, since the first post, the 26 Nosler specifications were published. I decided to see how it would work out wildcatted to 338 and 277, 284, 308, 323, 366, 375 and 416. Apparently, I'm not the only one. After finishing the 'design' in QuickDesign I logged into the PTG website to find out how to order a wildcat 338/26 Nosler and...... They were listed in new products. Actually PTG added the .257 and omitted the .336 and .416. Ok by me. The barrel shoots pretty good so I'm gonna rechamber. The finish reamer has been ordered. A resizer reamer had been ordered. Go/No go gauges ordered. Die blank ordered. 6 Weeks, just enough time to mess with the 338WM until I tire of it. pBike257 makes a forming die set for magnums now so they are on the way as well. I hope for a 200-300 fps increase over the 338WM More than a 338WM or 338/300WSM but less than a 338 Edged. [/QUOTE]
