Cheap SRAM cassettes?

Have finally worn out my stash of CRC brand X 12speed cassettes that I got for 30 each I am now looking for replacements. Seems the cheapest is sram sx/nx for about £75. Are there any other good options. Weight is not really an issue, but must fit standard HG freehub. The days of cheap parts appears to be over…

SunRace MZ800?  

 

12 SPD, HG and around the same price as the SRAM options

ZTTO from aliexpress? I've used the road versions on my turbo and they're fine if heavy.

Given the amount of space on those rings, is it made from lead?

I’ve got one of those cassettes spare, I actually got it out of the box a couple of weeks ago, but it wouldnt fit my hub, which is Microdrive. I’m not sure on what hub it will fit, the Part No. is BXGM1221150, described as 12 speed MTB cassette, 11-50t Neutral.

One on ebay now is £70, and says it fits HG.

SRAM do an entry level (NX / GX) 11-50 cassette which fits Shimano HG splines. Perfectly functional but it's heavy. Comes on a lot of OEM bikes, my MTB came that way.

To fit a decent quality SRAM cassette means changing the free hub to XD so you can fit the 10T upwards cassettes that the better quality groupsets use.
