338 Win Mag vs 338 Lapua Mag

Tasco Spotting Scope 20-60×60
The Spotting Scope Riflescopes are a bag of compromises. They need to be compact, sit low to the bore of the rifle, provide a range of very practical zoom, give enough eye relief that you won’t get scope eye, and above all else, they need to withstand the shock of firing the rifle.
