I think she would like it. It feels very strange in my shoulder. My daughter is about 5'6 and the gun fits here very well. It isn't just the shorter length of pull but the comb height and shape of the stock. They offer it in a couple pretty effective cartridges too.
This is up my alley. Doesn't look like they do Tikka inlet. May have to put together a 280ai for her. I have a Defiance action and a Proof barrel ready to go.
It's a very uniquely shaped stock.

There are several hardwares that can be had to add on to your preferred stock or the manners set up. Loggerhead hardware is one that comes to mind. Google search will bring up several more I am sure.
Thanks

I am another vote for a Camilla. My wife loves hers. She needed a lightweight, short lop, low recoil, and good cheek weld. I bought her a Mark V in 6.5cm. If you want a 0.284 projectile and stay away from weatherby cartridges, it comes in a 280ai.

A semi-relevant data point, I built my 5'-0" tall wife a scoped 10/22 using a Hogue Youth stock and it fit her very well.
In building a KA "A" zone hunting rifle (aka "hiking the Coastal Range with a rifle") I used a Boyd's laminate stock that I hollowed out both the butt-stock and the forend. That helped get a scoped, slung, and ready to use Howa Mini 1500 to under 7 lbs.

Depending on how much you want to spend, you can order whatever lop you want from manners, or get a KRG that will start out about 12" until you add the provided spacers.
I'm 5'8, and when I order a stock for my Competition rifles, I have manners cut the lop to 13 1/4". You can get one from their "ready to ship" department, and they'll do anything you want to it.

Take a look at the GRS adj stocks they make them for the Tikka
Take a look at the Grayboe Phoenix. Light with adjustable LOP and cheek rest. My wife loves hers.
My hunting partner is pretty short and he cuts down the stocks on rifles he gets. Has done that to a couple remington rifles, one of which I traded him for and had to buy a new stock to fit me, and a couple Browning X-bolts. The problem with the brownings are there are not a lot of aftermarket stock choices to replace it if he wants to sell one of them. I say just cut the stock back to fit her and add the adjustable LOP that @choprzrul mentioned above, which will make it usable for larger shooters. My dad has cut rifles stocks down for his sisters in the past since they are both 5'2" or so.
Boyd's stocks! AT1 is fully adjustable.
