Very large short action

Does anyone know of a Short (or even medium length) action...probably aftermarket like Stiller, Farley, or Bordon, etc. That is big enough to handle a cartridge with a rim diameter equal to the 408 chey tac? (about 0.640")

I'm trying to build a rifle with a cartridge of that diameter Only Shorter, length wise it will work in a short action, but it seems all I can find are long actions. (because they are ment for chey tac lenth cartridges).
