If this is a FIRST hunting rifle I think an SKS is a very poor choice. How many of you out there learned to hint with a single-shot? I learned to hunt with an old ss bolt action .22. My first shotgun was also ss. Gives a new hunter a whole different perspective if he knows there ain't gonna be no 2nd shot, it tends to make the 1st shot a much better one. I would not suggest a Ruger#1 or anything like that, but would say a Rem. 700 would make a lot better choice for a first hunting rifle. It sounds like deer would be the largest game you would be after so something like a 25-06 would be an excellent round, and no comparison as far as accuracy to the SKS.
