That's true. But, most people interested in a WSSM are more likely to want the .243 than the .223. If all else fails... bush and recut the bolt face, and modify the extractor. It's a perfect action for a .223 Remington-class cartridge (pretty much anything under ~2.4" OAL).

That's a lot of work, certainly beyond the scope of a rebarrel. It would be interesting to see how 223 cartridges would feed with the WSSM action.
If you could do it, it would be a nice rifle. It's a shame Browning/Winchester didn't keep the super short action for the 223 class of cartridge.
