If those are your options, the #4 would be great in South Ark.
I would likely run a 6x Leupold, or perhaps a low to mid range VX-2 or VX-3.
My Last Swede was a Ruger K1-A, dumped a buck at about 275 yards late one evening across a field, he was in some brush. Had a 6x with #4.........one of my fave reticles for K.I.S.S. set up. Fast to use....
How do you run a Leupold?
