Any suggestions for ammunition?
Yes. Handloads. Forget the factory fodder. For what you're paying you could roll your own. Save the brass, put some primers, powder, etc. on order and wait for it to arrive.

The iron sights are visible, but caution on the scope caps, they reduce the visibility to almost nothing. Without the caps, you can see just enough to take an aimed shot. Also forget about a cheek rest if you use one, it will totally block your line of sight- makes it impossible to use both the cheek rest and iron sights.
I agree with dubbleA. It was a good idea in the store, but after shooting, the iron sight/scope combo does not make much sense.It's just my opinion. but I think you'll be better off ditching the see through rings and getting that scope down where you can get a good cheek weld and forget using the open sights.
Or leave the rings and install a removal cheek piece so you can take it off for barrel cleaning and forget about the irons.
