Howa Mini's in a chassis (or not?)

[theCan]

Does anyone have a Howa Mini in a chassis? I've not heard good things about the EXCL Lite (too bad because the price is RIGHT!). Is it worth spending double the money to get the ORYX version? What were your results? How heavy is it? The whole point of the mini is to be light, but obviously the chassis is working against that.

I'm really torn which way to go. Is the best buy really just the Houge version?
Shopping in 6.5 Grendel.

I had a 6.5 grendel mini in a glass bedded boyds at one stock and a 300 blackout mini in an mdt lss chassis. I've since sold them but if I was going to do it again id either do a bell and carlson, a carbon stock from stockys, or for a chassis option the Oryx.
