I have a Mesa in 308. Small, compact, easy to use. It’s a tack driver with 165 gr nosler partitions. I have had great success in Africa with it. It reminds me of the old Remington 700 Mtn rifles when they were good!! I bet the 6.5 creedmore above would be a good rifle for her

If you didn’t fit the beretta to you and go to the pattern board and make sure it was shooting where you were looking it’s not a fair test. I’ve set up many berettas and benelli’s for people on pattern board that when we started they would miss a target by 2’ at 25 yards until you get the right...

Our 1st trip to Namibia was when Obama was president. All I could find was 165sst superformance ammo for my 30-06 that would shoot decent. I harvested oryx, blue wildebeest, black wildebeest, warthog, all animals died with one shot. Heart lung area was jello. None of the bullets stayed together...
