Herb,
Check out the Air Venturi Bronco.

This is a great air rifle and an even better value. There is a lot of info on the web about this gun so Google search and read all you like. I have but thousands of pellets through mine shooting with my kids. It is very accurate, very quiet, and designed for smaller shooters. With a decent 3-9x scope you will be stacking pellets inside of 30 yards.
If you want a very high quality gun that can be enjoyed by your great grandchildren, check out the Beeman R7. By far, this is my favorite air rifle, also in .177.
Avoid almost anything made by Gamo or anything the advertises muzzle velocities of 1,000 feet per second. These guns are a POS, generally not accurate, loud and hard to shoot. IMHO, the sweet spot for muzzle velocity in .177 cal is 650-800 fps.
FWIW, once I got hooked on quality air guns, by powder burners went into the safe and have never come out again.
Good luck.
