I just replaced the disposable Bushnell Trophy XLT 3-9 (disposable as in if he dropped it out of a treestand, no big deal) on my grandson's rifle with one of the $100 Amazon FFIIs, but this is his fifth season, so he has some experience and a few bucks under his belt. On reflection, I think an LPVO with a proper hunting reticle would be a good idea, ideally a 1-6. Generally they have good eye-relief, and even if the kid is a power-ring fiddler, he/she/they can’t get into too much trouble with 6x on top.
