I don't believe I would let a kid fire at a deer at 500 yards. at least not unless I had spent some time with him at a range and was VERY VERY confident in his ability to make such a shot.
but that's just me. most of the fun of hunting ,for me, is to get in close. while I have killed game at such distances ,I seldom take a shot farther then one hundred or so.
