Interesting yes, but along this path we've had the RUM, Lazeroni, Imperial, Weatherby, to name but a few. It will be interesting to see how this one plays out.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

I think Nosler would make more inroads if they were to off er these new rounds at a lower cost. It is kind of hard to jump on to this when you know that the only brass will be over a buck a piece and that the rifles will be >2k. Perhaps they are doing this deliberately?
No offense but you must be living in the 80's to think you'll be able to get this brass for a bit over a buck a piece.
Try over $4.00 a piece. That's what their 300RUM brass cost last year. $102/25pcs from both X-Reload and cabela's.ca.
On Brownells the price of 30 Nosler is already listed at $64.99/25 compared to $67.99/25 for 300RUM
Don’t argue with idiots. They’ll drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.
The cartridge doesn't interest me but the Outfitter rifle has my pickle thoroughly tickled.
Waa. Waa.
First, show me a 300 WM load at SAAMI pressure that sends a 180gr pill at 3200fps.
Second, show me a cartridge that is now head stamped and ready to go that will do .308 cal 200gr pills at 3100fps without ridiculous freebore and fit in a standard action.
It's as "new" of an idea as a 300 WSM was and its coming with premium brass of the shebang. It's the marketing that is going to count.
Junkies have tracks and that's icky. :

Unless they get the cost of the brass way down the Nosler cartridges' will fade to a distant memory.
If they sold the brass for $1- $1.50 a piece they would really take off, especially the 28 and 30 nosler.
Aren't these virtually the same as the Dakota?
