deer/elk combo cartridge for wife

[Cossack]

I'll get her a 7mm-08. I don't reload or one of the other suggestions would be considered. What rifle do you think would be good for her? What scope?

Mine is a Kimber Monana in 7/08 with a 1.75 to 6 Leupold VX III. Weighs just 6.5 lbs laoded with 5. Works great for my busted up shoulder. It's a bit spendier than most off-the-racks tho.
Have a look at the Remington Model 7.
The cheaper Remington Model 722 ("mauser") looks good too but is not available in 7/08, is available in 308.
