I mean the SKS is a pretty solid deer hunter. Winchester is good for moose or bear and the Smith is my go to turkey gun

Using a SKS to hunt in the big 26 is definitely the choice of a unethical hunter.

I think youre confusing ethical with possible.

Taking a iron sighted inherently inaccurate rifle to hunt animals is not a ethical choice in the world we live in.

2 moa with iron sights is good enough for shooting deer if you don't stretch it distance wise, if it's so inaccurate for you maybe you should look at the shooter.

You thinking the SKS is a 2moa gun shows that you dont have a fundamental understanding behind statistical relevant group sizes for dispersion.

I also wouldnt take a 2 MOA gun out in the woods to hunt with. But hey if wounding animals is your thing by all means.

I don't think it i do 2 moa ( yes at the range in optimal conditions ) with sellier and bellot sp. I grant you i don't do 2 moa everytime but i am accurate enough for the thick brush i hunt at 50-75 yards maybe. Never wounded an animal.
