CDX-R7 SHEEPDOG & SHEPHERD Actions and Strike Nuke micro-chassis

Patrice,

Are there any plans to offer the Strike Nuke inletted for other actions?
I'm looking for a stock of this style for a Tikka T3.
If there are plans to build them, I would happily wait and purchase a quality Canadian product.
 
Looking at your website, I see it lists different bolt faces are available, specifically B,C and D. I'm guessing .470", .540", .585"? Any chance of .384"?
Also, the different bolt knob styles, any chance of photos?

Hi,

you are really close for the measure of the bolts faces!

B: .480"
C: .550"
D: .600"

Unfortunately we are not currently planing on developing a bolt face A (+/-.384") due to the lack of demand.
that being said never say never.

And regarding the bolt knob style i copied you the link to our catalogue directly on the page that interest you.
If you want to take a few second to look at the whole catalogue you'll see a lot new cool stuff for 2017!

Hi Carson,

Unfortunately for now it's now in our plan.
we started the development of the Nuke with the Remington 700 because it's the most available action on the market and since the mold is a little fortune we started by the one action we ave the most chance to sale.
If everything goes well we will think about expending the choice of action available!

If you are ready to wait to buy your stock you can fallow us on Facebook.
Or contact me on my e-mail address once in a wile and i will keep you updated with pleasure.

Hey Patrice, could you give me a weight estimate on a 260 Sheepdog with a 24 inch barrel? I love the fact you guys are Canadian made and the adjustable chassis but this would be my one rifle to rule them all so to speak. As much as I like the looks, I'd rather not lug a 10 or 11 pound rifle with scope around after coyotes or deer and I'm stuck in southern Ontario with a caliber limitation of 7mm and under I believe (might be 270 or less). I've got lots of 308 brass since that's what my dad shoots and sourcing Creedmoor or 6.5x47 Lapua can be a pain I've been told.

Cheers,
Wes

Hello Sir

This rifle alone weight about 10.5 to 12 pounds depending on the configuration so it's definitely not a light gun. It's intended for long distance shooting, not to walk a lot like coyote hunting.

Your best option may have to go with a smaller contour barrel. You could buy the Strike Nuke chassis alone, the CDX-R7 action alone and then have a small contour barrel or carbon wrapped barrel installed on this action by your local gunsmith.

This may be a better solution for you.

The Strike nuke is about 4.0 to 4.3 lbs depending on the configuration.

Let me know if I could be of more help.

Best regards

Thanks for letting me know.
I think this will be a popular product for you, it will definitely be a stock I would consider for future builds.
 
Thanks Patrice, I've liked the idea of an adjustable stock since I discovered my 870 length of pull was too long, makes me worried other factory firearms won't fit me without a new stock or modification, this conveniently solves that problem in a Canadian made package. I was looking at a GRS stock but the Strike nuke is actually cheaper and synthetic which will be better if the weather gets rough.

Do you recommend anyone in Ontario in particular Patrice? I've been looking to do some business with Tactical Ordinance, I know they do rem 700 work but if I'm going to sink the money in your products I want to use a smith you trust that is familiar with Cadex products.

I have no reason to send you away from Tactical Ordnance because Casey is one of the great knowledgeable gunsmith that I know. I'm sure he can help you and make you save some hard earned money compared to buy from us.

Let me know if you need more help.

Best regards
 
I have this feeling Tac Ord is going to be getting a lot of my hard earned money in the next year or two... Ah well rather support Canadians anyways!
 
Any news as to when the Strike Nuke Micro chassis system will be available for sale, I know there was a change in the internal built in aluminum structure, I'm curious as to when they will be completed and ready for consumers to purchase?
 
I know that people wish to see many other configs than Remington and clones but they are still the bread and butter. I don't know for how many years still but the mold for the Strike Nuke is insanely expensive to design and produce so the demand must be there prior for us to go that route. We'll see what can be done but that would be a medium to long term plan. Best regards
 
Hello Gents

Sorry for the delay of reply.

Latest updates from the production and R&D department is that the R7 Sheepdog actions will start to ship at the mid-August once we come back from the summer holiday shutdown and the R7 rifles will start to ship couple weeks later (so around the beginning of September).

We are currently completing the final mold of the Strike Nuke that was challenging to say the least so these will ship in September too.

Thanks to everybody that have some on order for their patience and be advised that Cadex will be closed for two weeks starting this Saturday 22nd.

Best regards
