Rrrright.
3 shots and I had a bruise.

For years common knolwdge was that a 7mm Mauser was the perfect Ladies rifle. Evidently The Ladies have been getting weaker .
The same could be said about "men" these days....exponentially.

WTH is a "metosexual" anyway?

it all depends on the weight of the rifle. you can't go wrong with the .25-06 or 7mm08. i personally favor the .25-06. buy either one and let her shoot it, if the recoil is too bad...put a Sims Recoil pad on it.

"....Rrrright.
I shot a 7-08 for the first time last year, a Browning gold medallion, 3 shots and I had a bruise.
It surprised me how much it kicked.
Non existent is my 14lb, Bull Barrell.243...."
Suddenly, all your previous"pro-fly-weight-cartridges-for-big-game" positions over the yearshave a whole new meaning to them.
Thanks for sharing that; it all makes more sense now.
