If I had to do it all over again.....one gun!
Get a Thompson Center Pro Hunter. The beauty of this gun is that you can change barrells in minutes.
I own the Encore with a 50 cal muzzleloader barrell and a 22-250. The 22-250 is an awesome round and will do the job.
PM me if you want to discuss this further.

That should of been the first thing you checked.
I know that now thinking about it
It was a new scope, shouldn't have been anything wrong but who knows.

Loose scope mounts will do it too.......tell your cousin to shoot it open sites and see what happens.

My budget is 500 or under and he is a gun guy. I know that "gun guy" and "buget" don't go together, especially considering what I have paid for some of my own guns
...but it won't be his only present, so he'll have to make do.

Then...
...I would, frankly, ask him what he wants. What caliber? Semi auto? Bolt? What kind of scope? Will it be heavy use, get thrown in the truck, on a 4 wheeler? Or does he like a finer looking weapon? You will have trouble getting something nice under $500.
Ask him!

Savage makes a really nice affordable rifle and I can't believe no one has suggested .223 yet, yeah it has got somewhat expensive but it is still a better deal than 22-250 and can be found everywhere.
Rifle and decent scope for under $500 is going to be tough. A good varmint rifle needs a good scope on it as well.

22 hornet or the Rugar 77/17
Skunks and raccoons should NOT be shot unless you're going to use their pelts.
I had a bolt action 22 Hornet when I was a teenager. That thing was vicious.

yeah buddy, I got that Taurus Tracker revolver in .17 HMR, but, the dude better worth it for what I paid for this "tree rat tacker", however, I did fully explain to my wife that "I have always wanted one" and I also "needed" it! LOL
It's a hella' gun to shoot though and a ton o' fun.
