Not so much the make of rifle but maybe the caliber is the point to be made here. If you are slightly framed, as in a small gal, maybe a lighter recoiling cartridge with good bc will be good for you, a 6.5 creedmoor for example. If you are a bit more full bodied, you could potentially absorb more recoil without developing a flinch, a 270 or 280 ai would give an advantage against wind and bullet drop as well as being perfect for you target animals and environment you will hunt.
My only input towards a howa, is that the hogue stock has a floppy fore grip which makes it hard to consistently shoot off a bipod.. I have a browning and I love it
