    @oraki I haven't read through all of the comments. But have read about 30.
    From the start I am thinking either a 243, 308 or 7-08 in a rifle that fits him well! A 243 maybe on the smaller side, but it will help with shot placement and shooting technique.
    With either of the other two I wouldn't worry a bugger, especially if buying second hand.
    I would suggest against a 270 as they have a bit of recoil compared to the above options.
    There's my 2c
