If you carefully stop the frames from this movie on a DVD you can tell in the scene where Mike (Robert DeNiro) ejects cartridges from his rifle that the cartridge is a 30-06 government. This would make the caliber of the rifle .308. The rifle used is a Remington model 700 BDL. This particular rifle model was chambered for this cartridge contemporary with the filming of this movie, and in fact continuously from its introduction to present.

These are the weapons http://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title=Shooter listed. There is one more. I believe they miscredit the rifle. It is a .22. It has a supressor. He shoots Memphis' captors. I am doing further research on this.
.308
I believe the above original answer is incorrect. The rifle used by Mark Wahlberg in "Shooter" was a Chey Tac (Cheyenne Tactical) M200 Intervention, .408 cal.
open shot 7.62 nato, then 50 BMG
later a remington 700 in 308 and a M4 in 5.56 nato

What is the best rifle for a 13 year old?
IF the 13 year old is a novice shooter, a bolt action .22 is a good starter gun. Relatively inexpensive, very light recoil, it requires a positive action to loadsuccessive shots, and by simply opening the bolt, the rifle is taken out of action. However, my 13 yr old granddaughter has shot with me for several years, is a competitive rifle shooter, and uses a AR-15 in caliber .223. It is important that the rifle fit the shooter physically- beyond that it will depend on the build and experience of the shooter.
