    Just use the Fiocchi ammo if it’s accurate and your girl is used to it. My boy’s shot a couple of fairly big red stags using that ammo out of a 16” barreled savage. I’ve shot 14 good sized reds in the last 6 weeks using Belmont Black 55gr. Nothing moved more than 30 metres. IMO people tend to get too obsessed about velocity, accurate shot placement is far more important.
