The Tikka T1X is a very good shooter for the money, nice short bolt throw and very accurate. It has a plastic stock but is much more solid/durable than most tupperware variants. Many on rimfirecentral have switched to the KRG chassis and not seen any improvement in accuracy from the factory stock.
If you find a takeoff stock from a Tikka T3 it is interchangeable with the T1X action. I found a takeoff Tikka T3 Ember stock from a Roughtech model and put on it. Jazzed it up a bit.
If she moves up to hunting/centerfire shooting as she grows, then a Tikka T3X could be the next logical step and she will already be familiar with the action.
Good luck with your search!
