Ok, I guess we missed the point on that one. His daughters recoil sensitivity was discussed earlier and if you do agree we need to teach anatomy and ballistics then why are you suggesting she be armed witht he bare minimum to kill the animal? I'm sure per chance you could kill plenty of white tail with small caliber rounds but is it appropriate? No. We have already discussed this topic in length before. If you teach a young person how to shoot the right way the first time then there will not be all of the common issues that arise such as heavy recoil due to a poor stance, posture, grip or scope eye or worse using an under powered round that wounds the animal and your stuck tracking it for hours, if you even find it at that. I feel sorry for any kid who is set up in this fashion for a big disappointment, going hunting with a pop gun only to find out that it more than likely won't do the job for the first time hunter, what a shame. And if you don't think you owe it to the game in your state then keep practicing what you preach and watch your numbers drop. Hunting is full circle, go in and harvest what you need cleanly and do your best to make sure there's more for next year and many years to come.
