I just put up a post a little while ago about a ss/camo CVA Optima Elite combo at Cabela's for $400 marked down from $550. .50cal ML and either .270 or .30-06 CF barrel. I have the combo and my ML barrel will print 1"-2" at 100y. If you don't need the CF barrel then sell it and your ML is fairly inexpensive! Check it out on Cabela's website.
