Not being negative here, just honest. I had a Chinese (Norinco) SKS and could not hit a milk jug at 25yds with it. If you want an inexpensive Yote gun, You may want to look for a Mosin-Nagant in 7.62 Russian or a russian SKS with a screwed barrel . The Mosin's can be had in Lafayette for $125.00 and they have been re-barreled. My son has one that is very accurate with iron sight at 100yds. If you get one, watch your backstop (Cows) as that round does not know when to stop.
