MSA makes both of those. The 1000 is newer but more for industry rather than what I think you want it for. Actually, I don't even think it is CBRN certified. The big makers are MSA, 3M, and Scott. There are others of course. If you get a chance, I would put them on to see what you like. You should be "fit tested" to make sure you don't lose your seal when doing things. The Mill is a good mask but has a big CBRN canister.

Just as a note, mask like these require the user to work to breathe. You must pull the air through the filters. Some people will not be able to use them due to health problems. In that case, you would want to use a powered air purifiying respirator.

Any thoughts on the Scott Promask?

I was always a fan of their goggles back years ago.

I like the sound of this...

The configuration of the airflow channels ensures low breathing resistance.

Test fitting prior to buying isnt much of an option for me.

Or how about the SGE400 on sale?...
