Hmmmm. The more I investigate the more I only see 45-70. A lot of the 338 Lapua talk is from third party bloggers that posted on forums. All the print articles mention just the 45-70 (including Silencershop's blog).
45-70 is around 40,000 psi. 338 Lapua is around 62,000 psi...... a pretty big difference. I'm hoping the Hybrid is 338 Lapua compatible, but I wouldn't be shocked if it isn't. A 7.5" suppressor would be an awfully small for a 338 Lapua.
For reference my TBAC 338BA is over 10" long.
