You can buy barrels for the newer Savages in a lot of places. E.R. Shaw, Sharp Shooters Supply, Shilen, Pac-Nor are just a few that come to mind. Not sure if Mid-way offers an A&B 204 barrel or not. As far as cheap is concerned; you can find cheaper barrels than for bench rest guns, but they are going to cost you more than $100. Expect to pay from about $250 and up unless you are able to a get an A&B barrel and they will cost you around $130+. Good luck to you and let us know if you decide to get a barrel or not and where you got it from.
