If their similar to the Raptors then they will do everything well but not at it's best ... I looked into the Raptors as i wanted to use NV to confirm at distance and the mag was too high for thermal spotting , the mag was too low for it's NV and what use is 3.5x for bino's ?
I ended up sticking with the Accolades and going back to a PVS-14 with 3x lens . I know it's not what you asked for but at least it may help you if the spec is similar .

This is a Steel Core Designs 338 Lapua Mag that is now not needed by myself .... It has had proof rounds only and i will sell it as a Thunderbolt as shown in the pictures or i will change the stock to a Cyclone as shown in the other stock . ( see website for details ) The rifle has a 28 inch barrel complete with muzzle brake and has a full length 30 moa picatinny rail .
The rifle also comes with bipod , rear monopod , tool kit , very basic cleaning kit , 1no magazine and a hard case as shown .
A massive saving on their normal selling price

Hitting a 300mm plate almost every shot at 720m even in good conditions is mighty impressive .... I reckon there could be upto 1100mm of vertical dispersion at that distance with Eley match .... Impressed !

ps... Sorry to the OP for going off track

OSOK, Where did you get your ring reducers from?
You need a mate with a lathe and order some delrin from eBay .... Nothing out there to buy off the shelf but easy enough to make

Anyone else on here going ?

That's not true ... Plenty of scopes for under or around the 2k will do the job you require ... The S3 , Tract , Recon , NXS , NX8 etc ...... You crank the power upto 40x on anything and you won't see strike with a 338 ... You'll need a spotter every shot . If you love your S&B so much then by an Ivey mount and use that ..... I have an Ivey and they work well too and are more versatile than the Nightforce Prism but at just under a kilo their heavy ..
I bought the 40mm Ivey for my IOR but i had ring reducers made so i can use either a 34mm or 30mm scopes .... If you buy the smaller option then you can't go bigger if you change scopes !

I have a S&B 5-45x56 PM2 on my AXMC 338. It does for the distances I shoot mainly 1km. If I needed more elevation I would look at an Ivey adjustable mount or other options. I don’t need the elevation though.
I have a 7-35 NF ATACR on another rifle which has more elevation but I prefer the S&B on the AI just for the aesthetic. If I was doing it again I would also look at a ZCO 8-40x56. I arranged a couple of ZCO optics for some English friends. They seem very happy with them preferring them to their S&B PM2 scopes.
another question would be .... What's your budget 1k to 2k or 3k to 4k

I don't currently shoot anywhere that I can get out further than a mile. The rifle currently has 30MOA rail. I do have a 45MOA mount on the Barrett, though I did think that was a tad excessive given I also want to come back to 1000yards
?
It depends upon how many MOA you have in the scope .... 30 moa rail plus 40 moa mount would be perfect on the S3 or the Tract as it would zero at 100 yards and get out to 2,500 yards ish ... If you went for a 100 moa scope then the 30 moa rail and a 20 moa mount would be better . Work on the fact that your going to use up approx half of the scopes elevation by getting a 100 yards zero so you need to put that back with the rail and mount

Your going to need between 70 - 75 moa using a 300g bullet to shoot a mile ... around 25x is a good mag to use because it will give you FOV for impacts where 40x is going to be tricky with recoil to spot . I would keep your dialing just to the turret as opposed to turret and holdover . There are a few scopes that have very good elevation in them .... Ziess S3 4-25x50mm , Tract 4-25x50mm both have 160 moa ... Both would get you out to 2,500 yards without using holdover .
Both of the above are going to need approx 80 - 90 moa of rail / scope mount to get the 160 moa of travel which means a custom or adjustable rail of sorts . You could use a Nightforce prism to add another 50 moa or 100 moa by just putting it in front of any optic . I have one of these and they work well . All this depends upon how far you want to go ...

I've been trying to make weight ( rifle 😁 ) and the bipod was a big saving ... Thought i would have to get ski's made as Craig's aren't the best and their too small .... These fitting was a pleasant suprise !
Happy New year to you too Lee

Two guys i know well have the 10k's and can't seem to get past 3,000 yards on a reflective target board ... As long as your ranging a block of flats you'll be fine !
