Pick whichever rifle fits her and go for it. Buy a lead sled for her to practice with until she is more comfortable with the rifle. She will not feel the recoil when shooting at an animal anyway.
I read/hear this a lot. And the shooter may not
notice recoil/blast at the time. But more often than not a person who has come to dislike recoil/blast will
exhibit being affected by it, even while not noticing it.
