You are correct on the base for your build. just add barrel and headspace. Someone else might want to chime in on the compatibility of the magazine. I believe the 308 works. Are you considering the Creedmoor for hunting or target/LR shooting? You didn't mention budget either. If you look at building a rifle from scratch for target shooting you will be lucky if you spend less than 900 plus optics. Doner action or rifle 300 to 500+, stock 200 to 650 and the barrel 200 to 400 plus odds and ends. a frugal shopper can do better but you need to be warned that used stuff purchased on the internet is often misrepresented or lacking in information.
Converting a non DBM to a DBM is not cheap and parts are sometimes hard to find. There are some good options for aftermarket. If you like stock savage mags buy a doner with the hardware and when your ready get your aftermarket stock with the stock mag inlet
