Can't go wrong with Remington 700s.

They all have swivels on em so you could easily purchase a nice sling for the child. My personaly choice would be the Remington model 700 VLS. It's got a bull barrel (thick heavier for accuracy). If you don't want a sling though the VLS wouldnt be a good choice. It's a weighty gun.

Although I don't think I have to tell you the more weigh the better it sits on sandbags/stands.





I'll assume this child is your boy? grandchild?

Kudos to you sir for showing a young one how to responsibly enjoy the outdoors and the wildlife. If more people were out showing their children how wonderful hunting/fishing. Hell... even frog gigging. I garrentee there would be a much higher respect for those of us who take pride in what we are doing, and less bitching about boo hoo they killed an animal. (Which I usually reply by telling them better the back of my truck than smashed into the front of your car... but thats another thread!)
