Hi all

I liked the idea of a 300/375 Ruger, but the Hornady brass I've got doesn't look great.

I've used Nosler brass in my 300 Weatherby heavy gun and it's good quality and consistent.

It's nice to start with cases trimmed to the same length,deburred, etc and without the dents and dings that the Hornady brass comes with.

The 26 Nosler necked up to 30 looks interesting.

The internet says it's based on either a 375 Ruger or a 404 Jeffrey - the only diagram I've found so far looks like it has a rebated rim so it might be like a shortened ultramag (2.590" long).

Interesting.

Interestingly, Nosler is now making 375 Ruger brass too. Gotta be better than the Hornady made brass.

It'll be easier to neck the 26 Nosler up to 308 than 375 Ruger down to 308.
