RE: hunting w/ 22 rim fire?
Geta Sims Vibration Labs butt pad for whichever gage shotgun you choose, I have one on my Mosin Nagant M91-30, it shoots a 7.62x54mm centerfire round(.31 cal). If it can make a mule kicker like that a pleasure to shoot then a shotgun will feel like a .22 to her. Well worth the $20, and you can get it at any Wal-Mart.
