-used R700 & utilize the trigger ~$350 (go savage or ruger for cheaper options)
-New Barltien/Krieger Blank ~$325 (go x-caliber or McGowen For chaper option)
-McRee Chassis ~$600 (some options more but also a decent used market)
-Smith to chamber barrel ~$300
I can guarantee the above rifle will shoot circles around the Ruger & can be completely customized the way you want it; just say'n...
Of course if you just want to buy to support the manufacture... I get that too.
