A guy I hunt with uses one. He’s killed 8-10 hogs and a couple deer with his using the 170 Hornady and Imr4227. His shots have been 30-90yds, all pass throughs and the longest track has been around 30yds.
I traded in an Axis II 350 legend with and 18” barrel and topped it off with a 4x40 Buckmaster scope I had on a 22. H110 and the 170 Hornady gave me very nice groups and it’s very handy with its short length. I don’t think it’s superior to anything but it’s light, handy, shoots good and I can buy factory ammo for $14-28 a box if I was so inclined.
I still carry my 35 Rem, 358, 708, etc etc but I enjoy my 350 also.
