This is a list of off the shelf rifles I could come up with off the top of my head...
Savage Palma, Savage F/TR, Remington Sendero, Tikka T3 Tactical, Accuracy Internation AW, Sako TRG-22 and TRG-42, Savage BA110, Knights Armement SR-25, Remington M24, Springfield M1A supermatch, Prairie Gun Works Timberwolf, Remington XM2010, Tubb 2000, Howa/WbyVanguard SubMOA, Winchest M70 Stealth, FN SPR A1, DPMS LR-308.
I think that if you want an off the shelf rifle to shoot 1k, there are a lot better options out there now than there were 50 years ago.
As far as cheap hunting rifles being used at 1K, there are a lot more people talking about it than doing it, although there is one guy shooting F Class with a stock Savage Axis. It is his first rifle, so eventually he will upgrade, but for now he's having fun and learning to read the wind.
