ISSUE TWO;
I can not find a youth lefty (well one I can afford). Should I just have her shoot left on the right hand design, or shoot right hand style?
I see a .223 or .243 for her 11th birthday, so I do not want to mess with her technique for shooting.
Do I keep her a lefty, or see how she does on the right.
Easy cure for issue 2. Get one of the single bbl rifles that has interchangeable bbls. That way she can upgrade to a 223 with the same rifle next year..and you can buy the whole thing now and no future expences...well minimal anyway..another scope and mount should do it for next year. later get the 243 bbl

If she is lefty leave her alone dont worry about it being a right hand gun most left hand shooters never shoot a left hand gun.
most leftys are left eye domenint as most rightys are right it is ok take it frome a guy that is left eye domenint and shoots right hand some times it could it could lead to problims.
my son is left handed and didnt know there was a diff in guns till the other day when we were at a gun shop and i handed him a left handed bolt gun.
when guying guns look for guns with tang saftys it helps.
