I've shot a lot of animals with an sks, it it worked great out to 150m point and shoot. However I used it for culling where I brought it a long to farm shoots and the like where I expected to encounter large mobs.
I never bush hunted with it as they aren't that practical for this style of hunting and I always had other rifles (bolt action) that where more suited to that style of hunting.
For me it's all about bringing along the right tool for the job on the day....but if ever in doubt I'd just default to my bolt action as it was a good general purpose weapon that could be used in any situation.
