CADEX CDX-40 Single Shot action

[THE Flapjack]

Does anyone know of a manufacturer of an aftermarket CADEX CDX-40 Single Shot action?
CADEX say that they are aware of manufacturers, but for understandable reasons, will not disclose
I'm visiting the SHOT show and will look around, but perhaps someone has a shortcut.
338 Lapua Magnum bolt face.
Thanks in advance.

If I'm understanding correctly, you want a single shot XL/Cheytac length action that is compatible with the Cadex CDX-40 chassis, essentially a 10in long x 1.6in diameter action?

Pierce Engineering 10x
Stiller Tac Driver 1.45/1.6

The Terminus Titan is a 1.6” cheytac boltface action. No idea what the screw spacing is on it.

Since my CDX-40SS SHDW chassis has not arrived and I did not order it with an action, I can’t answer your question.
CADEX website only shows pictures of the action and bolt.
Their CDX-40 actions are only 375 EnEABLER, 375CT & 408CT
The bolt face I need is 338 Lapua Magnum.

The Pierce 10x action mentioned by @Evintos can be ordered with a Lapua bolt face diameter. And probably the Stiller as well, but not quite sure on that.

Thanks and appreciate the suggestions.
I already have on its way a Pierce 10X Titanium with .338 Lap Mag bolt, but when we exchanged emails re the CDX-40, Jim said " The Cadex CDX-40 action I cannot copy, I have not had those in my possession that I can think of , I'm not sure of the inlet on that one."

Give Cadex a call or send an email and ask if the CDX-40SS action is compatible with their Dual Strike chassis. If so, you might be in luck. Just may need the offset recoil lug from Pierce.

Thanks again, but I've exhausted all avenues with CADEX.
Quote: To my knowledge, the only action that fits in this chassis is our CDX-40 Single Shot action. I understand that Pierce Engineering manufactures the 10X action that can be used with our Dual Strike chassis, but please note that this is the Stiller 1.600” variant and not our CDX-40 Shadow. There may be additional manufacturers offering actions with a similar footprint as our CDX-40, but I am not currently familiar with them.

Seems like you're going about this wrong. Why go through all this trouble?

Good luck

-edit- @THE Flapjack. In this case, the best option will be to send the chassis with the action to Pierce so they can at least see what it takes to make their action compatible with the shadow chassis (or vice versa). That way Pierce Eng. can inform others before trying what you're attempting. Otherwise, sounds like some modification is in order for the chassis.

I'm beginning to wonder
I ordered the chassis some 10 months ago, mistakenly thinking the action format would be the same as the Dual Strike
You need to look at the difference between the CDX040 SHDW Single Shot and the standard Dual Strike (which I already have and very much like but not available as SS)
I only use TacomHQ structured barrels so the CDX040 SHDW single shot is a much better option than repeater chassis.
I'm building 416 Barretts as well using Peirce 20Xs.
I've multiple other single shot chassis, Mirage ULRs for the 20Xs and Baby Orca of the 10X and Mama Orca for the 20X.
You could say I collect chassis.

Needs the Dual Strike XL Action chassis for the Stiller (since you already ordered the Pierce 10x). If you don't have the chassis yet, change the order or cancel it and get the appropriate Dual Strike from the drop down list. Action screw hole spacing looks to be the same as their CDX-40, there are Z height differences though.

Thanks for this.
I had been too focused on the Single Shot.

Thanks to you, I can ask Jim at Peirce if he can make me a TAC 408 (10X or 20X) with a 338 LapMag bolt.
