 Welcome to the site.



 The 'varmint' upper as listed on the White Oak site comes as a complete unit, so yes, it comes with a carrier group, which includes the bolt.




 The upper has a bull barrel, but no sights, so I assume you're mounting a scope.




 Which barrel length and twist are you going with?  I see they list the option of 1/7, 1/8, 1/12.  Either the 1/7, or 1/8 should work well for you, if you're using the more common grain weight of bullets.

thank you.. I plan on going with the 20" barrel with the 1-7 twist..  Also, i do plan on mounting a good long range scope on it, have not decided which one yet.  any suggestions?

The twenty should work out well for you.  1/7 is a good twist rate.



As far as optics, with the exception of a US Optics SN3, that I bought, I haven't looked at scopes in a while.




There is an optics and mounts forum in the equipment section, in the AR 15 category  that should offer some good recommendations  on scopes and mounts.
