Reports say it makes less noise than an MP5SD model, and has better ballistics.

I really really like this, I just hope it's not all hype.

Knowing AAC, it'll be good.

Now that AAC is owned by Remington, is this another attempt to reintroduce the .30 Remington? I haven't studied the case sizes/stats etc, but they seem similar...

No, it is a variant of SSK's .300 Whisper. The latter is a .221 Remington Fireball case necked out for 0.308" projectiles.
