[QUOTE="britz, post: 276431, member: 7865"] AJ summed it up pretty well. I'd be in favor of a 25-06, 260, 270, or a 7-08. One thing about the muzzle brake is the noise. Often people will flinch more from the noise than the actual recoil. Get a good recoil pad installed on a hunting rifle and let her try that. on second thought, I'll even agree that the 243 is an excellent cartridge as long as the range is kept down below 300 yards. It has very very little recoil. What ever you get, it would help to have her shoot a similar rifle a couple times prior to buying. It's not good to be fearful of the rifle. [/QUOTE]
