It's very good, but the Natascha is still super viable as well.
For more supportive heavy play, Tomislav is REALLY good. Lets you do your job from further away, which lets you take less heals while dealing out equal damage. Natascha is also good for this, because the slow is just as important as damage and lets your teammates deal frags easier while you take fire off of the actually important classes on your team.
For a tanky combo-focus style of play, Natascha or Stock are both ideal depending on what kind of tight combo heavy you wanna play. Stock for when you want to be the focus of the combo, since you can actually get close enough to deal the damage (ALTHOUGH THIS IS AN OLD WAY TO PLAY, EVERY OTHER CLASS IS BETTER THAN YOU), and Natascha for when you want to last longer in big team fights to let everyone else commit through behind you and call focus targets easier.
So, for the optimal (imo) way to play HL Heavy, Tomislav and Natascha are the kings atm. Stock can still work, but you can do more if you play to the new miniguns strengths.

I did a not very scientific test with a friend in an MGE server a few weeks ago when the mini gun changes came out.
We tested the stock mini gun vs the tomislav at various distances. We were in mumble and counted down 3-2-1, then started firing at each other standing completely still (so there was no difference in our tracking abilities).
At long and medium range, the tomislav won every shootout. At close range the mini gun won. We did about 3-4 tests at every distance. It's sad but I see almost no reason to use the stock minigun anymore. Tomislav or maybe natasha.
I would like to see maybe someone do this kind of test a bit more scientifically, where both players are firing at the exact same time, no fraction of a second delay.

saamdid you start revved up?
Yes. Both reved up, 3-2-1 countdown then we fired. I know the tomislav has a faster spin-up didn't want that to become a factor. Was testing the difference between the 20% accuracy buff for the tomislav vs the stock miniguns faster firing speed. I thought they might cancel each other out, but that was not my experience in our little tests.

the tomislav is near useless against good scouts at close range, so the stock or the natascha usually work better against teams with scout carrys.
