Not that the viper's are not good but for something to be put on a .338 lapua i would go a bit higher in the price range. If your not looking to go "all out" on your scope. At least take a look at the Viper PSTs, Leupold mark 4s, and Nightforce NXS SFP. That is unless you want FFP which is going to run you 1300+ for MK 4 and NXS in FFP. The PSTs are 900-950$ for FFP and in the 600 range for SFP.

Re: long range scope
NXS F1 is $2000+..... The regular SFP 3.5-15x50mm NXS on up to the 5.5-22x50mm will do just as well $1350-$1900 depending on if you want the Zero Stop and Hi-Speed Turrets.
You need to figure out what best suits your personal needs.....but there's always that saying..."Buy once, Cry once"....might as well spend the cheese on glass that worth it.

Re: long range scope
Regarding opinions on the PST, I would discount any you might get from eleaf. All others should be helpful. Just a heads up.
