We did choose the .243 and the main game will be deer and antelope, if elk ever comes into the picture for her then I have given thought to getting it rebarreled to 7mm-08 or .308 but that would be down the road a ways. Or always could get another rifle. smile The main goal was to get a good deer and deer caliber in a rifle that fit her well, and get her some time on the range to work on the fundamentals to be a good marksman.
Thanks
