Agree with Larry. For the money, a 30" BSS Browning is the best option for an entry level clays sxs. Most have so-so wood and the forend and grip are a little clubby, but they are fine, well made guns with good dynamics, and are good candidates for Briley Thinwalls. Hard to find the 30 inchers, though.
I've had several BSS's, and the last was a 28" gun used for ducks. One thing these guns benefit from is moving the nose of the comb back about 3/4". Opens up the grip and makes it much more comfortable.
Actually, a 30" BSS is a also a good candidate for a nice re-stock. You could put $2500 into one and end up with a $4500 gun that would stand up to a Model 21 in every category. Thought about it many times myself.
