[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 913709, member: 69478"] I don't have any experience with the Savage lightweight hunter, but I believe if you want to go with a light recoiling caliber, get a .308 Winchester. You can load it light, then when she gets more accustomed to the rifle you can load it hotter. Huge selection of components and info on the .308 WIN out there. You could push 165/168s out of a 20" barrel at around 2700fps. Would work on elk out to 400-500yds. [/QUOTE]
