Both Caddock and EBG offer some very high voltage precision 1 and 0.1% film resistors. Not cheap but when you want performance, they have it. I assume you mean meter multiplier resistors, not meter shunts.

I am installing a meter to measure plate voltage 1-5000v@ 1a?dc, the meter has 
a 1ma fs rating. ?the serial resistance I have made up in the past has been 3 
watt metal film resistors in series. since they can only rated for 200v per 
resistor it takes many to do the job. Can some other resistor type with a 
higher rating?be used in a safe manner for this purpose?...tnx, Doug,w9iix
