Eight Pointer
Seems fine, I’m sure it’ll kill deer fine... but I just don’t see the point. It’s not doing anything real special that you couldn’t do with a 30-30 or 35rem for hunting. 150gr is light weight for 338cal gums let alone 35s.
It is an auto rimmed cartridge. It can easily be fit inti a semi auto platform unlike 30 30 or 35 rem.
Performance wise you are absolutely correct.
I always wanted a .357 mag AR. I would love to see some uppers 350 legend. That would be its best fit.
