I am about to start a build with a Bighorn/Zermatt Origin and Criterion Savage pre-fit (nitrided). It will use AICS mags with Primal Rights conversion kits and/or the newer MDT 12-rounders.
But if I were going to go with a hinged floor plate, I would stick with my Howa mini-action, and buy the bottom metal from Oregunsmithing, along with one of their lightweight stocks. I don't know of any other floorplate options currently available. Jefferson Outdoor was also making one but appears to have stopped. Maybe someone lese here knows about other options.
I would not go with a Savage rifle and then swap the barrel. (Just me, not saying there is anything wrong with them. I just wouldn't want the replaced original barrel sitting around.)
