It's not a job I've done, but I've screwed around with a few Axises and their stocks. Inletting for an Axis could be a little more complicated than some other rifles, especially if you're intent on using it as a repeater.
The factory, plastic floorplate magazine will require a latching point in the front, and short magazines will need a surface to hook onto in the rear of the magazine well. Boyds does this with plastic pieces set into grooves in the stock. SSS has a proprietary, metal, single-piece front pillar and latching point and a metal tab in back. It's possible, I'm just speculating though, that CDiPrecision could cut the inletting for their DBM once you have the magwell, action screw holes, and trigger guard inletting cut. I also seem to recall SSS made an Axis stock that would take factory metal floorplate magazines, but I'm not sure how he did this given the Axis' weird action screw spacing.
The other thing that might be a challenge is the trigger bracket. Unlike the 10/110 trigger bracket, and Axis' bracket isn't just fixed to the bottom of the receiver in a way that you can just cut around. It's spring-loaded, it has a flat bearing surface, and one of the action screws runs through it. There's a lot going on, and I'd just be tempted to hog it out and pour in some epoxy if it weren't for the spring-loaded aspect.
