If she's going to hunt inside 200 yards, the 30-30 is a fine gun.

.270 is much more versatile and does everything you'll need. Diversity in a rifle portfolio is a good thing, not a bad thing. who cares if it's another bullet to buy.

Get any of the aforementioned cartridges and load it w/ reduced recoil ammo and she'll be good to go. For example, a 125 gr 30-06 or 308 Win managed recoil load has a muzzle velocity of 2660 fps. Sighted dead on at 150 yards it will be 1" high at 100 yards and 3" low at 200 yards. Once she's comfortable w/ the managed recoil load, move her up to full power and expand her range (even she wants to).
