I am thinking about building a bolt action with the Strike 30 or Strike 33 chassis. But I haven't seen much talk and users' feedback on these chassis. How are they comparing to other chassis options like XLR, AI, etc?
 
I love my Strike 33. very comfortable and unbelievably solid. My only complaints would be the price and the handguard is a bit big. I had the 24" barrel replaced with a 22" to help balance it out.
Drake Associates hooked me up and have continued to stay in touch with updates and to make sure everything went smooth with the build. Other than the price I would not hesitate to build another rifle with a Cadex chassis.
 
I loved my strike 33, I agree the that the hand guard is a little large. That being said it is a great platform solid and very well made. Drake Assoc were absolutely a pleasure to deal with.
 
We ship the chassis immediately as we can pull them from our spare units, unless we are out at the moment you call. Usually if your chassis needs to be built, it takes about 3 weeks. Each chassis is built for each customer. Give a call on my direct line 631-905-1217 or send me an emai at [email protected]
Thanks
 
I just bought a Strike 33 chassis at the beginning of the month,. it should be waiting for me at the local fun shop when I get back stateside. As said before Drake Associates were absolutely a pleasure to deal with.
 
I just got my Strike dual on the 18th. I ordered it on the 6th of February. I think mine took so long to get was because it was right after shot show but it did get here and I'm very happy with it.
 
Just put my order of Cadex Dual Strike 30 (Tan) with Drake Associates today. Will see how long for their shipment.



One thing that I would prefer them to make an additional Top Rail for sale as part. So, customer can use one Chassis with Both Rem 700 and Stiller Tac 30 by just changing the top rail part.
 
Wouldn't mind running one next match season,I kinda liked the fit of 2010's, but that thing costs almost as much as my 6 creedmore I would put in it! Just can not swing it. I did talk with the guys at Shot last year and they seem to be solid folks.
 
Ok Gents you have some great questions and I can shed some answers for you -
1) We also offer additional top rails at an additional cost. You can match a second rail on a second action.
2) We also have a non-folded option as well - for example we did this for customers in countries like Australia that has a restriction on folding chassis.
Please contact me for your actual specification and exact price.
All the best! Happy Holidays!
