Pa, that's what my baby is. I got a Remington .243 Model 700, for christmas 1997, from My Ex in laws. Very very little kick, and is dead on. Is a great all around hunting rifle. My Ex uses a .222, and would be shocked at how many deers He's taken wuth it. Best thing I could sugest,would be to ask around and see if she could try a few ones out, see which is most comfortable for Her. Everyone's needs can be diffrent.

Life is like a Box of Chocolates..... You always get stuck with those Yucky cream filled ones
