[QUOTE="pvanwyk, post: 166299, member: 3421"] I've been down the same road with my wife. She shoots a Ruger no. 1 in 280 rem (168gr SMK's at 2800Ft/s). It's a light rifle with a fairly sharp recoil for a 110 pound lady. Shooting one or two shots is no problem, but extended bench sessions, pretty much anything after 5 shots, starts to take it's toll. Fitted a mercury recoil reducer, and probably even more effective a limbsaver recoil pad. Made a huge difference. She feels a lot more comfortable, shoots a lot better, and can spend plenty of time on the bench sighting in loads etc. [/QUOTE]
