Welcome to the forum Barry
Just gotta ask. What is your son going to do with this rifle?
How does he handle recoil?
Has he fired the 7-08 and loves it?
If its his first rifle and he's just gonna shoot at a range I'd suggest a 223 Remington.
Northlander (Jim Briggs) in the classified section of this site can hook you up with a barrel.
