Cheapest 1500 yard rifle and cartridge for competition

Not including optics.   I may sacrifice the weight requirements to up to 10lbs, though sub 8 would really be nice.

What event is this? It wouldn't be the Bull Hill Shootout would it?

I'd like to know what competition this is?  Sounds interesting!

It's the national rifle league comp in may.  I'm not into comps but I think I could learn a bunch with a dedicated LR platform that could be applied to hunting yotes.

If you're referring to the JC Steel Challenge in May, you'll shoot 80 rounds a day. Not 200. I will be shooting that match with an 18lb 6mm rifle, for what its worth. There isn't much "endurance" needed, other than keeping your head together for a weekend of competition.

1400 yards, sub 8lbs, 1/2 moa and less than $1000? You're searching for a unicorn. If you find it, capture it and keep it alive and hydrated. I would like to study it.
