The Winchester model 70 bolt locks with safety on. Love my model 70s.

ruger does not thats why she had the misfires
Not the ruger American.  The ruger M77 compact, it's the better grade.

Ron ,
I agree , the ruger Hawkeye laminate compact in 7mm- 08 , would be an excellent choice for her ..
I like the 3 position safety's..
you cook good rabbit pilgrim

I don't get up at 4 AM to play catch and release .

On the Ruger American model the bolt does not lock, on a Ruger Model 77 they have a three position safety and the bolt does lock.
