Love for Buds here also!

Maybe check out one of the marlin bolts. They are very nice, and you don't really have to worry about him running away like with a 10/22. Perhaps a single shot .22? check w. 4H or boy scouts in your area. They usually have a youth shooting program and may be able to help with a selection (single shot). Food for thought.

This, it is a rifle he will keep for the rest of his life. I still have the one my dad got me in 1977.

I have mine that I inherited that must be from the early 70's as well. Built like a tank and shoots the lights out.

What are you hunting?

I know little about youth rifles but I will say the Remington 870 youth model I've had since I was 9 or 10 has been a fantastic and versatile gun.

It really depends on the maturity of the shooter. I would choose a bolt action or a pump. I believe a semi makes it to easy to be a bad shot for young people
