How is the comb height on that gun for her? When she shoulders it with a good cheek weld is her eye perfectly concentric with the center of the scope?

I have struggled with that for women/girls and always looking for options.
You will never shoot a camp bull by spending all your time hunting in the woods.

That's a small price to pay to hunt with your daughter.....and a good job of being dad.

My oldest daughter has the exact same setup that you picked.   Absolutely terrific gun and scope combo.   If you reload try the 120 grain Nosler ballistic tips.  I've worked up a reduced load that is extremely accurate.  She took an antelope a touch over 300 yards with it and wouldn't hesitate to let her do it again.
