You might also want to consider the 308 Win. My wife bought a 7-08 and it's great but I've been able to load several low-recoil loads for her to break in with. There are no factory low-recoil loads in 7-08--and I'm sure someone will suggest that they aren't needed but a full power 140 grain 7-08 isn't that different from a 150 grain 308. If she starts out with the Remington Managed Recoil factory loads in 308 (125 grain core bonded bullet) she may never shoot the full power loads. If she does though, she will likely not even worry about the difference.
