[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2287183, member: 10755"] I bought my wife a 222 and a 7-08… she hates the 7-08 because it kicks bit more than the 222! I should never have gotten the 222, then she wouldn’t know the difference. Anyway, the 7-08 is a practical youth/female gun, mine is a Rem 700 SPS stainless that I also spun up a barrel in 6.5x47 to see if she liked that better, but they are much the same really. She will use either when push comes to shove but she still hasn’t grasped the fact that you have to HOLD ON to the rifle! Scope has touched her nose on a few occasions with no injury however. Both are shooting 120g class bullets, which to me is extremely mild in recoil… Cheers, [/QUOTE]
