She turns 15 this September and has been shooting the same compact Thompson center venture chambered in 7mm08 since she passed hunters ed at 8 years old. She shoots my Browning hells canyon in 270wsm really well but wanted to stay with the 7mm08. So after about an 8 month search I finally found a new Browning xbolt speed in 7mm08. We'll be topping it with a new zeiss conquest v4.

Nice. Maybe you should break it in on your goat hunt!

Sweet!

That will be a great rifle. Son and wife both have shot 7mm 08 for years. Son has graduated to a 300 wsm and 338 lapua so his 7mm 08 is now turned into a deer / yote gun. I worked a load with 101 grain hammer hunter that is super accurate. I wouldn't hesitate to take a bear with it either.
The 7mm 08 is super versatile and will handle a wide range of bullet weights. Your daughter will have that rifle for years. :tup:

Nice rifle. She’ll have that forever

Now get an assortment of earplugs and muffs for the young lady so she always has backups. My son's ruger compact 7mm-08 short barreled with brake is the loudest gun I've ever shot. Great rifle !

and then ditch the radial brake so you get real recoil reduction and less dirt flying everywhere to go with the noise :chuckle:

I second that. Getting rid of the radial ported brake would happen asap, I know the Savage LRH came with them and I hated it. Cant shoot a radial port brake over a Magneto Speed either.

Adopt me. I can be very childlike. She's a lucky girl. :tup:
