Range Report Berger 6.5mm 156 gr. Is it dead or still in R&D ?

I know there have been other threads about this bullet, but I haven’t seen any info since last spring (2018).
Does anyone have any recent Updates?

I know Berger loads it in one of their factory offerings for 6.5CM.

Yea I picked up a couple boxes for fun for the 6.5 Creed, it shoots slow as hell but it's consistent and rings the steel lol

For the juggernaut it's shooting, no not at all. I was speaking comparatively in terms of speed, or: 2850 etc.
I was comparing it to my 140 factory Berger, and they are identically looking. They must have just seated the bullet inside the case more, thus less powder.
