They are all extremely accurate even at long range and require little or no maintance. If you get one you will not be dissapointed.
I have owned 4 of them, and extremely accurate did not describe any of them. With a scope 2.5" @ 100 meters was about as good as i have ever seen one shoot.
I would like to own a modern bolt action chambered for the cartridge. Just for the shear fact that the ammunition is so cheap. The SKS is not a rifle i would want to hunt with. It will definetly kill the game you're after but it is too heavy and awkward, and i do not like any of the scope mounting systems i have seen for them.
