Hi Folks,

I'm a petite lady, 5'2" and looking to get my first bolt action at some point. My father has a .223 but it's obviously too big and heavy for me to use. I have my eye on the Ruger M77 Hawkeye Laminate Compact. Have any ladies used this gun or wives/girlfriends that can comment on the gun? Thank you.

Oooopps...just noticed that I probably put this question in the wrong section. To the Mods, feel free to move. Thank you.

Laura
