[QUOTE="James K., post: 2177071, member: 109764"] Since this is a once in a LIFETIME tag, don't shortchange your rifle with an inferior optic if at all possible... i would go with a Leupold VX6 HD CDS ZL2 3-18x44 with illuminated TMOA reticle, or a VX5 HD 3-15x 50 CDS with a Windplex reticle. You can have an elevation turret customized to your specific caliber, bullet, & along with weather , altitude information for your hunting area, then all you have to do is Range, dial the turret to the matching range #, & hold for wind.... I hear the 6.5 PRC is an excellent cartridge, & Tikka's are good rifles, I would probably opt for the Christensen Arms... either one would get it done. Good Luck, please let us know how it goes.
