If so Stormcrow is a good bet, it can carry a crazy amount of SRMs (up to 5 missile hardpoints). The Mad Dog is a competitor for SRM boating (it can get up to 6 mssile hardpoints and has better hit boxes, but is slower) but Stormcrow is much more versatile if you're thinking of experimenting with other builds.
As Leone mentioned the Nova is also a good option, but cannot use missiles. If you don't mind going all-energy, it's a very durable jump jet enabled option.

The Ice Ferret is also very fast, but can, at most, carry three missile weapons.

Stormcrow is one of the best mechs in the game at every conceivable loadout - you can bring 5x SRM6, 5x SRM4A, 5x Streaks, laser vomit, gauss+vomit, and even combinations and hybrids. Plus, good hitboxes and fantastic maneuverability. It only lacks jumpjets. It's a direct upgrade from the Adder and its a staple medium mech, I'd recommend it.
Ice Ferret or Nova if you want to have fun and challenge yourself. Stormcrow if you're serious.

Having said that, the stormcrow undoubtedly gives you more bang for your buck.

Clan mechs only?
If you're willing to go IS, the WVR-7K is one of the best brawlers in the game. 3 ASRM-6 and 2 small lasers with a big engine and jump jets. It tanks damage very well, is highly mobile, and has that ugly, indestructible T-34 feeling. Another huge benefit is that the way the missiles are arranged, the spread is mostly vertical, so when you aim correctly, nearly all or all of your missiles hit, and most of them hit the body part you aimed at. You can 1v1 a Timberwolf if you're torso twisting and using your jets to bunny hop him - just blow off a side torso quickly and you've won.
The only downside is range - limited to 350 some meters (with quirks and modules)

The Mad Dog absolutely does not have better hitboxes than the Stormcrow. Less broken, yes. But they are just flat out worse.
As others have said, get the Stormcrow. You will not regret it.
If you're not only looking for clans, the Wolverine-7K as suggested by Dino Might is a great one. I still use mine from time to time as a jump brawler and it's great fun. Another option is the Griffin-3M, which has great spread on its ASRM4's and an entire shield side if you want to learn torso twisting.

how so
they serve completely different purposes
it's overlooked because it has problems with weight limit and hardpoints

12SL + range 5 + TC4 gets you 232m (i think)
then you also have to hope HSR likes you because it has a happy time with not wanting to register your full on 6 SLs (but this is an issue with any large number alpha energy attack)
Is a lot of fun though but isn't going to be competitive if that is what you worried about it.
