Sixpointeightfan,
Thanks for the compliment! I would like to add that those 4 shots on the 300 yard target were somewhat rapid in succession. (approximately 2 seconds per shot fire rate) I have found this to be an excellent cartridge that is compact and easy to carry comfortably all day long yet it packs the energy to remain well above supersonic mark while hovering just below 1000 FLBS at 400 yards.
I agree with Stonewall308 in respect to the good ole '.06, it really is a "do all" cartridge. As with many available cartridges, It can easily take any game on this continent, however the '.06 isn't AR-15 or AR-10 compatible. (the OAL of the '.06 is just simply too long)
As far as not understanding why companies keep developing these new cartridges :
1. Who wants a gun safe with only one rifle in it?
2. What will you look forward to if these companies stop making new things?
3. What will you beg your old lady for (besides nookie)?
4. How will these big companies remain in business if they only sell one thing? They need our $$$$$ to stay in business so they need to keep coming out with new products.

I just started a small forum just for this round, it hard to find a good place to discuss it and get decent information from experience and not rumors, feel free to post your pictures and stories

This is my third elk but first bull, taken with the .30 Remington AR. Second season in the Sarvis Creek Wilderness, Colorado. 100 yard shot and a 150 grain AccuBond he dropped in his tracks.
