Unless you're just crazy about wood finishes (and cracked stocks, worn finishes, etc.), synthetic is the best option.

Got mud on my SBEII's stock yesterday and simply held it over the side of the boat and let the lake water clean it off for me.

Given that you're primarily hunting deer and turkey, the 26" seems the logical choice to me.
If you hunted exclusively deer and turkey, with no wingshooting or clays, I'd say 24".
