I shot a .308 for a few years. No way my daughter is ready for that.

hell @brockel just about has me sold on a 6.5, coming down from the 7mm-08

6.5 is nice. There are several reduced recoil rounds available for .308 though.

Yeah, I tried the reduced loads.
They worked ok.

I started at 12 with a .308 and found it manageable. Not for everyone, I get that. Good luck in your search.

Do you reload or factory ammo?

If factory ammo I would 100% go 6.5 creed

My daughter will be using a 243 this year for elk.

Mine did last year (no shots fired), but man... I've seen and played my part in too many rodeos to deliberately use someone that small. It absolutely can be done effectively by many people. And the inverse can also be true, I've seen .375's lead to long blood trails. But my #1 goal is for her to enjoy it, #2 is quick and fast kills. Everything else takes a backseat. So I really lean toward something a little bigger that still doesn't rock her world, because #2 has a direct impact on #1.
