Plus, the hunt starts in 6 weeks, so I don't have a lot of time to play around. I happened on a VX-II is all.

Use this one and just limit your shots to 300yds. Though pronghorns can give one opportunities for longer shots, you'll not be all that handicapped to only shoot to 300. Heck, I shot 3 pronghorns in WY 3 years ago and the total distance of all three shots was less than 300yds (60+92+126). My expereince in hunting pronghorns pales compared to many, but I've shot a few and only 1 has been over 300yds. IMO, you'll be best served with a setup you know and are comfortable with than adding a new variable this close to the season with the constraints you have mentioned for wringing a new setup out.
