What should I get him? Ruger 10/22? Savage Mark II?

I think he may like a bolt action 22 better than a semi, but that's just a guess.

ETA: and any scope recommendations? Total budget for gun, scope under $500.

As much as I love a little 10/22, I hate loading the damn magazines.

I much prefer something like my old Marlin Model 60 with the tide magazine on the bottom of the barrel.

That's about all I got. I'm sure he'll be happy with whatever you choose.

what's he going to use it for?
for straight up fun shooting it's hard to beat an M&P 15-22

I am going against the masses here, but I would buy him a Remington speedmaster. I'm not a fan of Remington, wouldn't buy any of their other guns. But the speedmaster are great. You can shoot anything out of them and they have a classic look to them. Much more suited for a gift to dad, imo.
