You don’t mention if you reload either.
The key to consider is this will be your sons rifle, not yours, so what ever you do make sure it fits him, none of this “he will grow into it” BS. That might mean re stocking the rifle or selling it off for the next graduation in size at some point as well.
I’m an advocate of the medium sized 6.5’s and 7’s personally, and try to steer clear of muzzle brakes and even plain 20” barrels if you can.
