Wholesale on a 93FV in 22wmr, is 225ish, 17hmr will be about the same - the green stock and fluted barrels are special deals for one of the big box stores (Dicks, Academy, etc). and were on sale for black friday last year.
The F stock is flimsy - it flexes up front w/ bipod or sling pressure or sometimes even your hand holding it. I replaced mine with a Boyds laminate ($100ish) which requires new bottom metal (DIP w/ extra long screws and thick mag plate $50). Mine in 22wmr became much more accurate after removing the bipod I was using.
If I were looking for a 17, I wouldn't spend $600+ on that setup ... $500 maybe, but only if the rifle were in NIB condition or it came with 4 or 5 boxes of ammo. Go to $600-650 if it comes with a LOT of ammo/extra magazines.
