you can get a 7mm-08 Ultralight (around 6 lbs with a scope) for around $400. It has an adjustable trigger - not sure if the Remington does and a 20" barrel. So it should be easy for your son to carry and handle.

I have never owned or shot a Howa, so I can't comment on accuracy. Perhaps someone else can?
I forgot about them, my friend has a howa .308 heavy barrel and he loves it.
