    If your talking about trick shots with sporting clays , It basically comes down to what you feel comfortable with. Your probably going to want an aftermarket extended skeet choke. which will extend the overall barrel length. I would suggest a 26" barrel unless you feel comfortable with a 28"+ barrel.

    Usually with a 24" barrel your not going to get the traditional "Field" Sights. You are probably going to get a high rise fiber optic front sight and possibly a rifle mid/rear sight. a 24" barrel is know as a Turkey barrel. Its not going to be your best bet for trick shots with clays.

    I don't know if this matters or not. But Tom Knapp isn't sponsored by Benelli anymore. He is now sponsored by CZ-USA , And uses the CZ-712 with 26" barrel with mag extension. And the CZ-712 is a phenomenal shotgun and retails for around 450-500.
