When my daughter was 14, I got her a Cooey in 308 from a fellow AO member. She had previously shot my Enfield without difficulty. She started with reduced recoil loads and still sometimes uses them but has no difficulty with federal 165 grain nosler partition. It is a heavier rifle which reduces the recoil but now she has something that she can use for moose or elk in the future. The lower cost allowed me to buy her a quality scope (Cabellas Meopta) for it. This worked for us.
