Welcome. That build is coming along great.
Triggers: Geissele is the go-to company for triggers right now for precision guns. I have used many triggers, not all, but many triggers for the AR, and the Geissele is hard to beat. Only one I really haven't used yet is the AR-Gold trigger, but the Geissele is EDM'd, so you can't really get smoother than that.
Optics: For shooting out to 1000, a good 3-15x50+, or 4-16x50+ scope will fill the bill. It needs to be a quality tube, not Chinese or gun show type with yellow or red lenses, etc. You will also want lots of elevation travel to play with.
Depending on budget, go with a NightForce, or if that breaks the bill, go with a Vortex Viper PST in a 20 MOA mount. Those are my two recommendations off the top of my head. You're looking at $1600 and up for the NXS 3.5-15x50, and around $900 for the 4-16x50 Vortex Viper PST.
