| I just got caught up. She has gotten quite good with the open-sighted rifles and made great progress with the handguns. The .500 Jeffery makes a good video to show those what are nervous about stepping up to the larger rounds. Looks like the recoil caught her a little by surprise at first but she handled it fine after that. |

| I have shown these videos to some female co-workers who are concerned about recoil and larger calibers in handguns for self-defense. Not all of them are convinced that recoil is not a big deal.

Ha ha, yes that first round caught her by a bit of a surprise, but she then adjusted here stands and grip on the rifle and it felt good she said. |

It can be intimidating whit that “big boom” and recoil, but if they get the right grip on the gun they will find it manageable. |
