Well, you guys know I'm a .358 slut, and had 338 Federal existed in non-wildcat form whenI did my re-barrel I'd probably be a .338 Fed slut instead... so I'm really not arguing whether 338 Fed is wonderful little cartridge; in my mind, it is.
To my mind, and perhaps this is what Dober is saying also though I wouldn't presume to speak for the man, the 210 Partition is a known quantity while a 160-gn copper bullet, in .33 caliber, is definitly getting into the "science project" realm.
I'm all for science projects but if it were ME, that science project would happen on a caribou hunt where I had multiple tags... or on a gimmee cow elk hunt... or on a baited black bear... something other than a coveted bull elk hunt.
