[QUOTE="3sixbits, post: 61300, member: 3661"] For sure go with Shilen to have the barrel replaced by. If it is to be used by your daughter, I would be careful on selecting the chambering, The 6.5-06 is not a mild recoiling ctg. Nor is the 25-06 for that matter. Depending on what weight barrel you pick it can make a big difference in recoil. I think I would look for another rifle that you can cut down for her and pick somthing along the lines of a .250-3000, 7-08,ect. And then you have all the room to rebarrel and chamber to what will suit you,, without the handicap of a short stock, halfmoon circle over your eye ect.
