$1500? Now we're talking about a working mans budget. If that's the case I would have something built up on a Rem. 700 action. I bought a Rem. 700 VS several years ago and sent it out and had a Accuracy International heavy varmint barrel put on it and also a McMillan M40A1 stock put on it so it would replicate the USMC M40A1. About the only thing that it lacks is the Unertl 10X scope and to clip-slot the receiver and it would be an exact replica of the M40A1. It shoots MOA out to 600 yards. That's as far as I've ever shot it. I think the whole package cost me $1800 so I went over the mark just a little but I'm very satisfied with it.
I have a Tikka T3 Lite Stainless with a Silver 3x-9x Nikon Buckmastersscope on it that i plan on using for 600 yards. Here is a 3 shot group at 200 yards withWinchester Super-X 180gr Power Points.

There are also many other manufacturers that offer very accurate AR platforms chambered in the .308 and a variety of other cartridges capable of 600 yard shots.

a ar is what i was thinking dpms has a model that is set up for the military snipersthe Pantherâ„¢ LRT-SASSit cost is 2100 though stock but it comes with everything you need minus the scope.

In a semi auto I would look at the various AR-10's available.
