The Savage Model 10(?) Model 110. Arguably the best bolt rifle for the money today, accurate and affordable. No, I don't own one yet. With 5 bolt rifles I just don't NEED one. My son may be getting a rifle of his own when he turns 14 this year, just could be a 110.

If you want to get him a highly accurate and VERY affordable rifle and you don't mind it being a milsurp, get him a Swiss K-31 straight pull bolt action. Right now they are running about $100 each, and will easily shoot from 1 1/2 down to sub MOA with surplus ammo (some of the most accurate surplus you can get, too).
You can make a project out of disassembling, cleaning, rebluing the steel and sanding and refinishing the wood.
