[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 449483, member: 4191"] The IOR 3-18x42mm scope will handle the .338 Lapua, but only on an unbraked Lapua. Place a muzzle brake on the .388 Edge or Lapua and the guts of the scope will crap out. Experienced that with two IOR scopes so far. They worked fine on a 300 Win Mag until I installed a muzzle brake. Same thing with my .338 Edge. Then the scope died in relatively short order. They don't seem to be constructed to handle the deceleration caused by the use of an effective muzzle brake. That's been my experience with the IORs, and other have posted similar experiences.
