bought my 8 year old a savage axis youth (with scope) for about 300-350 last year
7mm-08 and i bought some reduced recoil rounds for it
it seemed like the best value for a youth gun and i looked for quite a while
its a gun that will likely only be used for a few years by him, but good enough to pass down to younger cousins, etc., or let them borrow it if needed

First gun is very important. As far as caliber it really depends on what/where you hunt. My first gun was a crack barrel 20ga. Great gun and could deer, dove, squirrel, hog, and shoot skeet with it. Killed ton with it, and still use it today. It will go down to my daughter in about 3yrs.
First rifle was a Winchester model 70 270 with synthetic stock. Kicked harder than any other gun I have ever owned. Had a custom muzzle break and blue printed everything. Best shooting gun I have ever shot.
Just make sure whatever you get doesn't kick to hard. Don't want to turn them off to shooting.

7mm-08 is your best option here. Plenty knock down power with little recoil.
This is a nice gun he will be able to use for years.
