I've got my fingers crossed that the Nuke chassis is a success and Cadex starts making them for Tikka actions.
Who the hell told you that because this is a BS story and the person that told you that is obviously not in the secrets of the gods? First, we never released the Strike Nuke so how could we recall it. Second there never been a problem with the cold, the initial problem occurred in the very hot temperature, in fact it didn't occurred, we simply expected it to fail with very hot temperature so we worked for months on a new composite and found the solution right before the holidays. So I don't know who told you that bad explanation but it's not even close to the truth. We expected the composite of the gen1 to have a tendency to flex too much under very hot temperature (like leaving the rifle in the trunk of your car at 30 degree celcius) so we didn't take any chances and preferred to design another composite blend.They recalled them because they break in cold weather shooting.
We never said that we weren't going to do it, but that we needed to complete the Rem variant which is still the bread and butter before thinking about offering the Tikka. If there's any other action that has a chance to be designed in Strike Nuke it is the T3 because it involves one mold only for short and long action calibers (always long action).They also said they won't be making them for any other action other then the 700 footprint anytime soon.
I'm sorry to hear about that. Leaving for the summer vacations the word was that we were going to start to deliver some Sheepdog between the end of August and beginning of September. Due to delays we experienced with the short action model for sure the long action Shepherd has to be delayed too but we are working hard on the tolling for the long action now that the short action is secured.I had a shepherd rifle on order and with all the problems with the stock, brake, and delays canceled it.
Guys sometimes complain about the weight of our first ever chassis design (Dual Strike) but that weight is also what gives you this ultimate stability required to make these incredible shots. Light and stable doesn’t go well in the same sentence. Now it’s up to you to find your sweet balance between the usability and the stability depending on your needs.
