What I don't care for is the lighter weight bullets sacrificing sectional density for speed. I'd rather have a 225 grain Nosler in .338 pushed at the same velocity as the .308 pushes a 180 grain.
Speed seems to sell, a lot will depend on how much marketing is behind it.
I think I'd rather have a .358 Win. myself. I'd stuff it with 250 grain Noslers and tip over anything I'm hunting within 250 yards.

Pretty much agree with you!
A decent short range deer & small black bear load. Would't consider it for anything "out west".
Even with the 338-06 the little chutes on the 338 bullets open way too soon.
