20 # plus 223 Or a 6 mm with a 223 case . At her age why would
You let recoil be any factor . Larry

After running the numbers it looks like a 243 ,SLR , 243AI or a 6xc will be the same recoil with 105 at higher velocity.

To the guys shooting the 6xc, does it do better with a .236 bore or .237 bore barrels and the same question for the 6SLR or 243AI.

I've shot both. Tell you the truth I can't tell the differ nice.

Whats Brass life in the 6xc pushing the 115s @ 3175

Unless you want her frustrated with the wind, run the fastest 105s you can. Unless she is a serious competitor shooting lots of matches and thousands of rounds a year, I recommend 243AI. Lots to love about 105s at near or at 3300fps. I have shot my hunting 243AI (11lb, 24" barrel) in 1000yd f-class and it did pretty well. The round would be a pussycat in a 20+lb gun.

I find fireforming rounds to be very accurate. I have several rifles which require this step and never felt it limiting.
