Thanks for all the great information it makes it that much easier think I'm going to get her the Remington 700

For me either a .243 or a 7mm-08 would be a great choice.

As far as the gun, I'd personally get a Savage Model 10 with the accu trigger if you don't want to spend too much. They are great guns and the price is very reasonable. If you can spend more another gun to consider is the Browning X Bolt, I really like them, but they are a little more pricey.
