What kind of accuracy are you looking at? Are you solo or do you have a team? If you need high accuracy, you will need a proper prism on a tribach and tripod.

I've found it best that all your prism have the same offset value.
I have 4 different sizes of prism and all are setup at -30mm offset.
One is a triple prism setup that is really not so necessary with modern equipment, yet I think it helps the quality of the shot when I am shooting something at a mile or over.

Definitely 6405-12, although I'd probably want to know what all is included in 6405-13, which is the kit. I prefer the florescent yellow, they only show the kit in orange but I would have to think you can order it either way.
