Just seen on outdoor hub that a new 22 cf round is imminent from Nosler anyone seen or fired it. ????

Very unlikely this side of the pond. Still unlikely in America. That been said, all it is is a SAAMI approved 22 PDK, a relatively popular wildcat for those wanting higher velocity in an AR15 or 223 action-length bolt action such as the CZ mini Mauser.
So if you google that you'll get a fair amount of info which will directly transfer to the "new" 22 Nosler

There are a lot of 'new' calibers out there that are largely irrelevant outside a country that has a preponderance of AR15/M4 actions.

I don't know about that. Many of the "AR Platform" based cartridges are easier to load for and more versatile in a bolt gun or single shot. Good examples of that are the 300 AAC and 6.5 Grendel. Even the 7.62x39 puts on a new face when put into a bolt action.

In the case of the 22 Nosler, however, I can't see the relevance in any platform. With 55 grain bullets the ballistics are virtually identical to the .223 with the gap opening marginally with the heaviest of bullets. I don't see people selling off their 223 AR's for this new Nosler offering.~Muir
