I would opt to try shopping over at savageshooters.com and buy a factory used barrel and save even more money!
It will cost you a paid membership but at $12 for a year and there are technical articles and such available.
Even if you don't buy a used barrel, there are many other items for sale by members.
Here's what I did recently in the "build" department:
I bought a model 10 barrel in .204 Ruger (blued bull), a precision accutrigger and a .223 bolt head complete.
All of this was installed on a new model 11 with a tupeware stock.
The only thing I bought from a retailer was a replacement detachable magazine for .223/.204 (cost an arm or three also!!)
After it's all said and done this build is shooting .268" for three shots @100 yds with the factory 32 gr. V-max and .210" for 3 @ 100 with the same bullet and brass in a handload.
What's not to like?
