OK, I am getting an EGW 20 MOA base and Vortex rings. Going to mount a Vortex Diamondback 6-24x50 next weekend. Next question: What is the most cost-effective stock/chassis to convert this to AICS DBM? Thanks.

Dollar for dollar it’s hard to beat the Oryx Chassis. https://www.eabco.net/ORYX-Chassis-S...h_p_16061.html $399 & a $10 off coupon! Hard to beat.
Many other Chassis to choose from, but the price starts going up. I love the Chassis I’m using now, but it cost a small fortune and doesn’t really add any accuracy potential above & beyond what the Oryx offers.
I agree with Dave.
I have two Oryx chassis on my two 12 FVs.
Easy to drop the action into the chassis and there was an accuracy improvement in both rifles.
I would agree also, the Oryx is about the best bang for the buck right now. I have one on a TC Compass rifle (I know stupid to spend more on the chassis than the $300 rifle, but it also wears a $500 vortex and shoots lights out) and I really like that Chassis. I also have a MDT LSS-XL Gen 2 on a savage and it is a very nice chassis also. There are a bunch of great ones, but like Dave said it only goes up in price.
Magpul says the Hunter stock is coming, and MDT has an Oryx Field Stock in the works also. Those should be a little less than the $400 Oryx chassis, but its a waiting game on those. Another option would be a Boyd's Pro Varmint laminate stock and add the DBM bottom metal. I'm not sure what that would cost, but it'd be at or under the Oryx chassis price point...
If you’re looking for the cheapest, it’s the Trybe ROCS Chassis. https://www.opticsplanet.com/trybe-d...is-system.html
Optics Planet is the sole proprietor of Trybe.
It's not bad, but I think the Oryx is still the better buy.
I like the look of that ROCS, but there are very few reviews for it. I guess it is a toss up between that and the Oryx.
The Trybe Chassis is very new. The Oryx has been out long enough it has a healthy number of reviewers. Also, it was backed by MDT, so that gave immediate clout with shooters. I’ve seen a few accounts on the Trybe, and it’s positive so far. I’ll say this.. it’s 6061 Billet like any other chassis. And it’s machined to a known size, for known Actions; just like any other chassis. The difference is it’s simple. There is no “quick adjustment” of anything- the LOP, the cheek riser. Everything is adjusted with spacers. So I’ll go out on a limb that you’d be safe getting one, as far as fitment, operation. And I do have experience with other Trybe parts. The machining they do is good. So I wouldn’t worry about that either. I still prefer the Oryx, but if you like the look of the Trybe more & want to save the $50, I believe you’ll do just fine for the $340.
Heres a in depth video on the ROCS if you haven’t seen it.
