-You can get quite a lot of scope for $1500 if you're careful- should be good.
-Given everything you've said, I think 6.5x55 is a great choice for you.
-The Norma brass is good in the 6.5-284, but (IMHO) the Lapua brass is even better. .....however, it's just occurred to me that you might not be liking the Norma brass due to the price?? In which case you'll like the Lapua even less . If you're wanting to eventually shoot to 1000m investing in some good quality brass will eventually be a good idea (for whatever calibre)...and thr price of the brass will be the least of your worries
