[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1967171, member: 92702"] Get a 20ga gas gun, especially if you can load for it. fit it to her as best you can, and put a rocker pad on it. Rocker pad is a big deal for lowering recoil for women. For practice at clays load 3/4oz of shot with Alliant 20/28 or green dot. We load green dot with 3/4oz for good functioning. You should be around 1200fps to get it to function. This is the go to load for girls shooting skeet. If a pump or O/U you can load it a little slower. Save the heavier stuff for hunting when she will be wearing heavier clothes and not notice the extra recoil. Both my daughters shoot 3-1/2 12ga's with 3" loads at waterfowl now, but they didn't start this way, and they both shoot the above load at clays still. If you don't load for shotguns consider a 28ga. The little gun kills much better than it should, and throws better patterns than many 20's. [/QUOTE]
