If it's just for the range, get whatever's cheapest. If you're concerned about recoil with your son shooting, the heavier stuff tends to kick less. 7000 grains to one pound. There are charts, probably online, showing the muzzle velocities and chamber PSI's for each weight of bullet and powder charge. IIRC, the higher muzzle velocities kick more.
