Default 6.5 Creedmoor from Hornady

This looks like a great little round. Does anyone here have some realtime experience with it?

No experience with it, but its one of the few new cartridges that I can get excited about. The biggest advantage to the cartridge is not its ballistics- they are pretty much identical to other 6.5s out there, but the actual factory load is printed ont he box and can be easily duplicated.

A writer on another board did an article on it in Shotgun News a few months back. I'll try to find the link.
