I shot one at a PRS sight-in day this summer, one of the engineers at Q was there and brought it up as they are only a couple hour drive from here. This was a 6.5. My wife actually shot it more than I did. We marveled at this rig, and he marveled over how the heck we hit anything with my wifes 5.5 lb hunting rifle with a 2.5-8 scope. I think the scope on that rifle added 2lb so it felt much heavier than my wifes kimber or my tikka. The way it was explained to me, its a tactical rifle that could do duty for hunting and wasnt designed for that, but who really knows. The aesthetics left me cold but that gun could shoot. I think he told me the base gun was closer to 2k than 3, but I might be misremembering.
