The 270 has a little kick, but not bad at all considering the results.
You either need to build a LR rifle, or a hunting rifle. With a 308, you could have both, and maybe the same with a few other calibers. A 308 is not a good choice for 1k yards.
Stainless is definitely better, hunting definitely get a matte barrel. A 6.5x47 is a great LR rifle. I would get this (in fact I personally have 2) before the 2 you mentioned above. Don't rule out a 260.
If you start Target Shooting & hunting with the same rifle, expect to replace barrels anywhere from 800 to 3,000 rounds down the tube. They do wear out. 3,000 rounds down the tube equates to less than 2 seconds of barrel use. Every bullet stays in the bore a fraction of a second, just a factoid to mention.
