Well, I've used Asus before so I stand by their products. Also just bought a GL502 with 980m.
Gl702: Skylakex1060. Decently thin/light with just the right stuff. My previous Asus was the gtx 660m and these things are built damn good for the price.

GT72VR: Skylake x 1060. I'm not too keen on MSI but people on Reddit love emm. Seems like it might actually be at a better price point.

I didn't shop around for the best prices, you may get lucky on Craigslist or eBay for a second hand. Maybe you can find an openbox.
How are these?

Picked up a Predator 17" a few months back and searching intensely and really love it for gaming. It's priced exactly at your budget: https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Gaming-GeForce-G5-793-72AU/dp/B01LZMFF0Z
I've seen it go as low as $600 used with no flaws on Ebay, $1000 was me being generous. You can get the GTX1060M model new on Amazon for $1400 (yours is several models below that) so I'm not sure what game you're trying to play.
The Predator 17 is actually a very good pick.. Yes the helios 300 has a better processor which is a nice to have, but the Predator 17 has a better display and if you like a bigger screen in general, that's a plus for you.
