Buy recommendations Iron sights or scope recommendations?

Just picked up a Tikka T3 in .270 Win. Should I hunt with the factory iron sights, or put a scope on it? If you’d go with a scope, what would you recommend? Thanks!

the tikka factory irons are (to me) rather easy to use up to 100. YOu mentioned you're on the island, i'd honestly consider jsut using irons as thye are less likely to be damaged when bushbashing and sightlines aren't as open.

I have been pleasantly surprised by the factory irons too. Half of me is thinking keeping it plane jane it will be ultralight and don't have to be worried about damaging any expensive glass.
