My 9yr old uses my dads Model 700 270.I was able to find a youth stock for it on ebay and it fits him perfect.We have the original wood stock that we can put back on when he gets bigger.I got him some of the Remington Managed recoil bullets(115 grain) and he shoots it with no issue.It has a Nikon Buckmaster 3x9x40 scope on it.

my first was a 20ga crack barrel.. killed everything from dove to deer with it. Then got a 308 that the stock was cut down on it. It just depends on what kind of hunting he will do most of. If mainly deer, get him a rifle (243 my suggestion) if small game get the shotgun.
