the SKS is cheap to shoot and turns money into noise in a hurry. Not particularly accurate but very tough. Kills paper and cans as quick as anything else. IMO not much of a hunting rifle (accuracy wise). Certainly not a long range rifle. About the same power (or maybe a little less) than a .30-30
If you're looking for a hunting caliber and really want to shoot much, consider reloading. Costs maybe 1/4th of factory ammo, can be more accurate, and makes it easier to practice
You should be able to find a decent used 30-06 if that's what fits the bill
