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 magnification of a scope helps select your point of aim a little easier, allowing you to be more precise. As well when the adrenaline hits it is more user friendly vs lining up iron sights, one less thing to think about.

Finally, a good scope is more useful in poor lighting conditions than irons.
