I'm going to have to check out the 338 round. Are there any expanding subs for it? I like the idea of the 300 grain SMKs, but they're just punching holes. If Hornady or someone made a 250 or so XTP-type pistol bullet, I'd think a 45ACP AR setup could be a quiet hogging machine. My hunting areas are usually about 30 miles NE of BFE, so I've got no problem running 300BLK supers or 6.8 with cans. But I do want to try out the killing power of the integral 77/44, but will either use it out of a tree or with a suitable sidearm with a full mag.
