[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1019331, member: 12193"] .260 or 7mm-08 would be my votes. The .260 would have a little less recoil when using 120 grain bullets and has the option of some great long range slugs. 7mm-08 is plenty for 500 yards and you can go pretty heavy on the bullets if you ever want to hunt elk. If she is really recoil sensitive you could get something like a .270, .280, or one of the WSMs and put a muzzle brake on it. Then it would kick about like a .243 and still have plenty of poop for shots well beyond 500 yards. [/QUOTE]
