Probably a good idea when it envolves a rifle, she's a natural. True story;
I bought her, her first rifle as a Christmas present and had it mounted with a nice little Bushnell 3x9 scope. We went out to her Dad's to sight it in (he has a nice 100 yard range set up). I borrowed his brand new lazer bore sighting thingy, and sighted the rifle in. She was at the shooting bench with the gun on sand bags and I had my spotting scope on a table near by. You could tell she was nervous about shooting the gun, I think because I had just finished sighting in my 300 winn mag and she watched the beating I took.
Anyhow, after much fidgeting around, she let one fly. I looked through my scope, but she wasn't even on the paper. I told her to shoot twice more, and she did. The next two were about 2 inches low and left of the bull (not one hole, but almost). When we retrieved the target, it was obvious that her first shot went straight through the bullseye, I just couldn't see it through my crappy spotting scope. That was her first ever shot with a rifle of any kind, an Ultra Light .270. We still have the target, and I wanted to frame it, but she wouldn't let me. I couldn't get over how good the bore sighting lazer worked. I shot the gun a few times, and no adjustments were made to the scope at all.
