[QUOTE="Marble, post: 989891, member: 51354"] I'm a big of the 7-08, and based on what you are looking for, and my experience with it, that's what I voted for. What was said earlier about finding a rifle that fits her is key. My wife can shoot any pistol almost as well as I, or rifle for that fact, if it fits her and she is comfortable shooting it. Women are smaller and almost need a youth size gun most of the time, but they do not want a youth size gun. So a short action with a stock built to fit a woman. A decent cheek piece to get her eye to the scope, a good pad and shorter throw and fore end. I'm sure you know or have considered all of this. I do not know too much about the other calibers listed. Buy I have killed several deer with the 7-08 and my 12 year old loves his, and my wife loves mine. It's easy to load for and you can shoot up to 160 grain plus bullets in it. [/QUOTE]
