[QUOTE="Cold Trigger Finger, post: 1486963, member: 56732"] The biggest question I can ask is wether she will be hunting at long range, or normal big game hunting ranges ? If she will just be hunting deer at 25- 400 yards. A Kimber Adirondak in 6.5 Creedmoor is just Perfect. She will enjoy packin it. And shooting 120 gr bullets it will kill as well as any rifle on earth. And be very mild on the recoil. It will do the same with 100 - 160 gr bullets . As I live in big moose country, I would just as soon use my little 6.5 Creedmoor with 130- 160 gr bullets as ANYTHING smaller than my 338 Win mag or 375 Whelan A.I. ect. As far as bears go, like any other game, only hits in the correct place count. Not 1/2 millimeter difference in diameter of the bullet. I know my wife vastly prefers shooting my 6.5 Creedmoor to her 308. And she shoots it much better. [/QUOTE]
