45-70 load for a kid

Hello all,
I have a 16" contender carbine bbl with muzzle tamer that puts it at around 17 1/2". The length of pull and the weight make me think it would be great for my daughter to use when she turns 12 for PA whitetail. I don't find the recoil bad, but I also sight-in my 300 winmag at the same time. I love the idea of a single shot for my kid, but can I load for the recoil similar to my 336 Marlin?
Thanx,
Earl[?]
