big grips or definitely long grips front to back (with the rubber thumb tang) like ergo slim grip or other ergo options, the trigger reach with a smaller grip like a magpul moe-k grip is too short and your finger wraps unnaturally around the trigger on howa mini's in chassis, as for buffer tubes, really like the strike industries one, solid fit with Magpul CTR or mission first battle link lightweight adjustable butt stocks, I prefer the ctr as the handiest all round, works prone as well with your left hand reaching under like rear bag...the open butt stocks not so good there, and the ctr can get you 3 different height cheek risers to tune your height to match your scope/rings...low rings work good for no riser for example, it's not hard to add weight in a hurry with bulky rails/rings/cheek risers etc. so I would set up 40mm or less 1" tube scopes in low talley rings and base ctr butt stock with ergo slim grip on the howa chassis builds I did to keep weight in the 'hunting' realms, hope that helps
