Actually I was thinking they could be made from the WSM case but they look a little short. Do you think ther would be collector interest in the cases made from the .348 win?

Well, there sure have been a lot of different wildcats based on the .348. Some radical changes like the Gradles, and the othrs like the various Ackley Improved rimmed versions in a lot of bore sizes, then the Alaskans, Fullers, etc. I suppose one could develop a real collection of rounds based on the .348!!
