So let's see...

New Remington 700 or Tikka T3 = $586 and up
New Barrel = $300-400+
New Stock = $130 and up

So where's the savings of going to a Remington or Tikka? And lets not forget you'll have $150 or more in gunsmithing fee's to have that new barrel fit to your Remington or Tikka since it's not a DIY job on those guns. Nothing wrong with either gun, but your logic isn't adding up here.
