[QUOTE="gonehuntingagain, post: 113441, member: 1206"] I think a 26" barrel would be way too hard for her to do anything with unless it was on a tripod with the 4th leg to steady it - it would be way to heavy out in front of the stock. Recoil would be light though. I would buy her a youth .243 like the Remoington 700 SPS Youth. You still may need to cut down the stock to fit her, but it will be light enough that she could still shoot it. Then as she progresses, add length to the stock. Once she is fully grown (it would make a sweet 16th birthday present [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]), then take that rifle and fully customize and fit it to her, she could also decide what whe wants in the rifle as well and could choose the caliber.
