That's the range you pay for those WSSM based ones that Olympic sells, but then they're a serious departure from conventional AR components, so you'd expect it to be reflected in the price. Unless Rem/BM really intends to get out of the caliber, which I just don't see happening, it's a matter of sitting tight until the next production phase. I'm betting by mid-March at the latest. A month and a half is worth waiting for a decent price. I can relate to the feeling you get when you have everything but the upper as I went through that myself. Heck, I had loads done and waiting for a month before my upper came. It was maddening...
