Anyone have one of these? Am seriously considering one.

My understanding is that it is optimized for supersonic loads which the .300 Blackout does not perform well with. It gains a bit more muzzle velocity with those same loads providing (Wilson claim) true better than .30-30 performance out of an AR platform.
They claim it beats the .30-30, 7.62x39, .300 blackout, 6.5 Grendel.
Now I love new load development, I am a bit of a ballistics geek but we all know it can't beat the Grendel. The Grendel is able to shoot across galaxies and still maintain enough velocity too drop an elephant even if only hit in the toe.

You will have to pay WC prices as well, so color me dubious of any great advantage.
BTW, the Grendel is crap... you want the 264 LBC.
