As Big Cheese said, virtually zero calving issues. Calves are beefy, and the cows are still considerably cheaper to maintain. It's too early in my experiment to tell, but I'm hoping for some increase in longevity in the crossbred cows. We have a couple of Longhorns well into their 20's with good calves on them right now, and it'd be great to get that kind of mileage out of the crosses. Just think of all the heifers I wouldn't have to keep!
