Boyd's does about half the stocks for savage's high end rifles. They make beautiful laminate stocks in a couple color schemes. They are $99 apiece so don't sweat the stock.
I agree on the scope, but you have your scope anyway.
If you want to be really tricky, buy a youth model. The short barrel, and then put on the Boyds stock on that. Now you have an adult pull with a short barrel. Very easy rifle to move around.
By the way, it's very very easy to change a barrel on a savage. All you need is a barrel wrench and vice. About 100 bucks worth of stuff. Then you could put any barrel you want on a savage action, as long as the bold face matches the cartridge. That means anything based on 308, including 22 250 can be re-barreled on your single action.
