The value of a .338 Lapua used rifle is largely about the barrel since it has a "relatively" short life without needing to be set-back or rebarreled. Typically, 2000 rounds; like every other magnum depends on the usual variables and what you consider to still be "accurate" as it begins to degrade.
With a street price new of around $1400, I'd expect around a grand to be easily obtainable -maybe more if you keep a detailed log book with round count etc. Absent being able to inspect with a borescope, a lot of buyers will assume a shot-out barrel- one of the major reasons for selling (that, and cost of factory ammo) so they'll value it accordingly. I suspect that's why you see a range in value.
