suggestions for a 20 gauge

Question
Hi!

I am a 40 yo female who hunts pheasants in Illinois.  I have been shooting an
old 20 gauge single barrel and am ready for a new gun.  I would prefer not
spend a ton of money.  I also shoot clay.

I would prefer something not too heavy as I tend to haul my gun through the
fields all day.  After shooting with friend's guns, I like an over/under more
than a side by side.

Can you make some suggestions for me?

Thank you.

The lightest guns are CZ side by sides
About 6 pounds or little more.
Most of the U/O 7.5 pounds or more.

Overall the CZ are the best of the group.
The Mossbergs are 2nd overall.
Followed by the Remington and Stoeger,

Try CZ SxS guns as they are done right and are very quick handling.

feel free to ask follow ups.
