[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 3805500, member: 13337"] Hello Tinytim: The Savage Mk-!! is a great choice both for quality and price,,, Assuming that he is big enough that the rifle will fit him. I prefer bolt actions to semi-auto's for a first rifle,,, It avoids the spray-n-pray method of shooting. I wouldn't choose the Henry for a first rifle,,, Even though I loved the H-001 that I once owned,,, I still believe that a decent bolt-action is the perfect first rifle. If your boy is small like my friends son though,,, Go ahead and get him a Crickett. Yes, he'll outgrow it eventually,,, But it will serve him well until he does,,, And the rifle is so inexpensive (relatively) that it's not cost prohibitive. As an aside I know a man in his 40's,,, He still shoots the Crickett that his son eventually outgrew. Hope this helps,,, Aarond . [/QUOTE]
