Put IC or LM (light mod) choke in the gun (or both if an over under) and enjoy.

It is a very fun hobby. Careful as it can lead to bird hunting which gets expensive and time consuming.

To me you already have an awesome clays gun. Just shoot it and enjoy.

My latest thrill in shotguns is the 28ga. A total hoot. Your 20ga will break any target you might see. No need to go 12ga since you’ll eventually just come back to the 20.

I agree, 20 ga is great and 28 ga is also lots of fun! I have a moderately priced Spanish made 28 ga side x side that is light, nimble and deadly on clay targets! For skeet I use Winchester AA shells in both 20 and 28 ga with good results. My favorite 20 ga is a Winchester Model 12 skeet gun. Just heavy enough to absorb most of the recoil!
