Pissing in the wind? If you have good boots, etc, there's nothing 'wrong' with it. Like the 9.3 Barsness-Sisk, you can have your own deal, with all the costs that go along with it. Novelty aside, a low power 338 is short action is already covered with the 338 Fed. And it's hard to beat the 338-06 for the same level of power as your wildcat, or a hair better, by the time you lose all that powder space to bullets in the SAUM case. If you build it on a std length action, you'll better the 338-06 by a hair, but you might as well keep the mag bolt face, the same cart length, and get real power in the 338 Win Mag.

I hope you get the picture. It is a lot of money and hassle for almost as much as what is relatively common and cheap.
