[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2287461, member: 95344"] Even though I'm a 308 win fan I would've suggested a 7-08. The problem I see is the Camilla Vanguard is only listed with a 20" barrel on the 7-08, I don't think that'll get you the velocities needed for 1500 ft/lbs at your listed distances. So it you reload I'd try a 280 AI. The Mark V Camilla Ultra Lightweight would be braked with a 26" 1-9" barrel. It would still be light at 5.8 lbs. But really it's up to her. If you could let her try a variety of rifles that would be best. Or think of this as a learning process that might call for several rifles over time. [/QUOTE]
