semi-auto is not an option as one of the states we will be hunting doesn't allow them. Bolt is the way we are going.
We are pretty much locked in on 7mm-08
She's handled a few guns so far, most have been eliminated as not fitting:
- Remington 700 to long, haven't found a model 7 yet
- Tika (not sure which one), to long
Savage Axis fit good, but struck us both as "cheaply made", they also had a model 11 lady hunter which fit nice.
Heading to Harrisburg Sporting show to try some more (and probably book a hunt!).
