Welcome aboard.
A good rule of thumb is to get the barrel and bolt from the same source and a reputable dealer if you can. The shallow bolt face depth with 7.62x39 and 6.5 Grendel is really a problem for the extractor, which is why AA went with a .136" bolt face depth and some other changes to the bolt design to accommodate AR15 parts commonality with minimum parts changes.
You can beat the Midway and Brownell's prices on a barrel/bolt right now with AA and get fluting on top of that for less cost.
AA 16" fluted lite MLGS: $195 http://www.shopalexanderarms.com/Barrels...arrel.html
AA 6.5 Grendel bolt: $79.20 http://www.shopalexanderarms.com/6_5_Gre...Parts.html
AA Hard Use bolt: $93.50
AA A2 9/16x24 FH: $16.50 http://www.shopalexanderarms.com/Muzzle_...16-24.html
