Thanks for the offer, but I got the MGM 6.5 Grendel barrel, and I think it will do well for her. It didn't shoot bad but also not good enough when I got it, about 1.5 MOA. So, I went to work on it and replaced the locking spring with a Belm Heavy duty spring to make sure it got a good consistent lock up, a heavy hammer spring, a firing pin return spring and a new sear spring. I also replaced the hinge pin with a 1X oversized pin and then replaced the forearm screw with longer trimmed to fit screws and standoffs so the forearm is now only touching the barrel at the screws. Now it shoots sub MOA with the Hornady 123 grains SST.
Here is a short video of the first day at the range after the modifications.
