JS,
I take it when you say you have a 'standard cant base' you mean a base with no cant. If you go 20MOA it will get you another 6Mils.
SPUHR makes 34mm mounts with 6, 13 and 18Mil cant (none in 30mm however). They also don't make cantilever mounts (AR15) in anything more than 6Mils. No doubt because what you are hoping to achieve exceeds reality so there is no demand for it.
You also wont be shooting paper targets at 1,000. It will be large steel or big frame wooden targets that takes two people to lift. Your group sizes will not be theoretical out there. 1MOA at 100 will be at least 2MOA or more at 1,000. Choose a windless day, rest the gun, use a long range scope and take a lot of ammo. If using steel it will be hard to hear the ding. Theoretically, a 6.5 will get to 1,200 yds but such a slow round from a flimsy AR15 is like adapting a heavy bench-rest bolt-gun to do CQB.
