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!

Get proficient with iron sights and then invest in a good optic.

Been working on that. I can hit a 10 inch gong consistently at 100 yards. I'd like to work on shrinking it down to 6 inches.

New England custom gun sells peep sights that fit on the tikka t3. An aperture sight with a longer sight radius would help shrink that grouping.
