New Anschutz Smallbore Rifle

Anschutz has a new smallbore rifle available with the G&E stock. The action is based on their 1827 Fortner action, as a single shot, with the 5018 trigger. I was going to take the plunge but cannot find any feedback. I would also like some reasoning behind the choice of this action over the 1900 and 2000 series actions. Does anyone have any information? Thank you.

It's called the challenger. It works like a biathlon-rifle so extremely fast reloading. Here's the website:
