So what's this 22 Nosler?

A few more approximate capacities for comparison:
223 Rem = 28.9 gns.
222 Rem Mag = 30.3 gns.
223 Ackley = 30.9 gns.
5.56 X 50 Mag = 31.6 gns.
22 PPC = 33 gns.
22 Nosler = 36 gns.
225 Win = 38 gns.
22 BR = 38.5 gns.
22-250 = 44.4 gns.
 
Stacy,

I got one. What would you like to know. The only bullets that would stay together consistently over 4800fps are the Nosler 64gr Solid base bullets. We got them at least to 5400fps before the barrel went smoothbore around 120 rounds.
4 REAL I READ ABOUT THOSE YRS BACK NOW THAT SOMETHING ELSE

Not even close to the 26/28 Nosler.
 
Well as for this one, I'm sworn to secrecy, but so far all the guesses posted are far off base as to the new offering. As I absolutely can't tell you all what it is, you'll have to wait for the SHOT show. But friends, you will not be disappointed, that I promise. :)
So much for your secrecy
 
I will bet on a 22 BR with a 40 degree shoulder. My 22 BR with Nosler 80 gr Competition bullets seated to the shoulder (long leade) will hold 36.06 gr of water with Lapua 6mm BR brass. I will bet it is set up for 9 twist or 8 twist barrels and 70 gr bullets. I have been using Reloader 17, IMR 4451 and VV N-550. With a 26 inch barrel you can push it to 3150 fps with 80 gr bullets but I have found a load near 2900 with VV N-550 that times the barrel and I can use my Wilson neck die again and again without full length sizing.
 
I CANT IMAGINE A 28 NOSLER CASE NECKED DOWN TO .224 TALKING ABOUT A BARREL BURNER !!!:(:(
Has everyone here forgotten the first Nosler was a 26cal? So its probably a 26nosler necked down to 22

The 22 NOSLER is not a necked down 26 NOSLER case.
The case is shorter than the 6.5x47 LAPUA. Internal volume is less than the 22 BR case.

22 NOSLER brass= .55 cents per piece.
26 NOSLER brass= $2.64 per piece.

Someone above had referred to it as the 28 nosler being the parent. That was all.
