When I was 11, I started muzzleloading for elk. I was like 80 when I was that age (just a tiny little kid). I shot 90 grains of powder behind a Powerbelt. I don't use powerbelts anymore, but they were really easy to load, which was a must for me at that age. She won't feel the kick when she is shooting at an elk anyway, but this load didn't kick like my current load at all.
