My son turns 12 in two weeks. He's thin and lanky and growing like a weed. I'm not sure if he can take on a 7x57 well enough.
I had the same body build at 12, and I was using a 12.ga, and a .30-30. I bet he can handle the 7x57.

If not, I suggest the 6.5x55mm Swedish Mauser. It is the most popular Cartrage for hunting Moose in Europe. The recoil is very mild as well.
