They have a field irrigated that way at Husker Harvest Days.
They claim that 600 GPM through drip tape, is as good as 800 GPM (or even a little more) through a pivot.
It is pricey to install, and you can't till too deeply, or you can cut it (about anything is safe, except maybe a subsoiler, but something to be aware of)
The wild card, is how long the tape lasts. I know of pivots running 30+ years already, and I'm using gated pipe over 40 years old.
