Yep. Get an AX. Problem solved :)
More seriously, I've talked to people who have used the Badger, the CDI and the PTG.
The PTG is the cheapest of the three, just north of $100 + cost of the magazine (additional $60-70ish each for the 5 rounder, another $10-15 on top of that to bump up to the 10 rounder). Only talked to one guy that had it, and said he wished he would have spent a bit more for something nicer, but it got the job done.
The CDI is next, mid $200s. It looked much nicer than the PTG, and the owner was happy. Again, no mag included and same mags so same cost as above.
The Badger is most expensive, mid $300s. Badger has a big name in long range shooting. I haven't seen one in person that I'm aware of, but have read a ton of great reviews on it, and lots of good nods from some of the regulars over at Snipers Hide. It does include a mag. Its popular enough, I'm sure I've seen one, but didn't go talk to the owner about it.
I'd try to get a chassis to avoid other shit like "bedding", and having to buy other hardware to make things work.
Here are some to look at... as we all know "The Sky is the limit" with these things.

Hot damn! Every time I see that CADEX I love it. Just never been able to put my hands on one and get a feel, to drop that kind of coin on an unknown. I'm scared now to hold one. It might force me to sell my AX and spend the difference on that unit.
AICS. Problem solved. Actually, it solves lots of problems.
AICS... If you want the feel of a standard stock, then don't sweat the mag feed and just use the box it came with. I have both. I single feed both 99% of the time.
I have the Wyatt detachable mag setup and it has been fine. I have only shot it a few times though.
AICS or AX chassis.
Done.
