Rem 700 XCR Compact Tactical - Reviews?

I've been searching for reviews on Remington's new 700 XCR Compact Tactical, but have not come up with anything from an independent. I really like the design of the gun but wonder how the 20" barrel performs. Anybody tried one yet. I'm tired of toting 11 lbs of varmint set-up so the 7 1/2 lbs dry weight sounds good. I've been looking for a lighter varmint rifle and this one has everything I'm looking for.

Opinions?/Reviews??

Please and Thanks.
 
The XCR Tactical should be quite similar to the 700 LTR, which is also a 20" fluted HB. The SPS Tactical also has a 20" HB, but it is not fluted. I've got an SPS Tactical in 223 and it's a shooter. I have put the action into an H-S Precision stock. It's just a personal preference. Here's a review on the SPS Tactical in 308. MI VHNTR

I've got the XCR Model 7 in .308, and it shoots the 125gr Nosler Ballistic tip into tight little clusters. That light little rifle is a joy to carry around all day.
