Agreed, it's no .30-06. I thought of the SKS as being equivelent to an autoloading .30-30. Interestingly my favorite 7.62x39 load is a 155gr lead bullet over the exact same amount of 2400 as my favorite 158gr lead bullet in .357 magnum. Probably very similar out of SKS/18" Lever.
Anyway range is down the list for me as we have enough tree cover I would be unlikley to have a shot exceed 100yds. More likley half that.
