Default RE: Need Caliber for 15 year old daughter

Yep, I already explained one shot, one kill with that rifle to her. Being athletic, she was intrigued even more by the challenge. Of course I will make sure she can hit the paper plate at 100 at will before I leave the deer at her mercy. And I will teach her towork that single action reload with decent speed. Thats about as long a shot as you get in the woods around here, typical shot being 50 yards or less. I have rarely had a chance to take a second shot around here anyway for the same reason. Ga. woods aredense.I prefer her to start with a single shot because it is simple, basic and I feel safer to operate (load, unload, checkif cocked)for less experienced shooters. I even prefer to hunt with one because like bow hunting, the one shot dynamic adds to the challenge.I guess I will have to get myself another one.
