Which choke tube should you use on the jc Higgins model 20 12 ga?
The choke you use depends on your target rather than the type of shotgun. For example: if you are shooting skeet, you would use improved or modified cylinder, but if you are shooting trap, you would use full choke.
What choke do you need for beginner trap shooting?
The standard choke for trap shooting is full choke. If using the largest, widest choke pattern, there is a good chance that that you can 'miss' your target if all of the bbs go around your target. The clay can slip through a gap in your pattern and it would be a miss, even if you were aimed right at it. That is why most non-beginner trap shooters use full choke. When using full choke, it is almost guaranteed that you will hit your target if aimed at it. However, I would not advise a beginning shooter to use full choke. I advise that you use your modified choke if you are a beginning trap shooter. You are still very likely to hit the target using modified, so 'missing' is not a problem. Also, it gives you a wide enough pattern to be likely to hit the target, and know where you are aiming (left, right, high, low) and how to correct your mistake. Once you are comfortable with modified, move up to improved modified or full choke if you want. In fact, I have been shooting for 2 years and I still use modifed from the 16 yard line. I don't have a problem with it. It works for me, and it should work for you.
Is a 4 10 good for trap shooting?
No, a 4-10 shotgun would not be a good idea for shooting trap. The problem is the small size of the shell - with a very small amount of lead, you have a small chance of hitting your target. Shooting a 20 gauge shotgun is much better but still not a good idea for the same reason. The standard shotgun for shooting trap is a 12 gauge. The largest gauge allowed by nearly all trap shooting leagues, a 12 gauge has enough lead and enough power behind it to get consistent hits and high scores.

yes it is good for a beginner i just purchased the Remington spartan 20 gauge shot gun for some light trap shooting and pheasant hunting this is the perfect gun and cant be beat for the price.

Shoud you use modifine choke for single shot shell?
Depends on what you are shooting. A Modified Choke gives a medium "squeeze" to the pellets passing thru the end of a shotgun barrel, thus producing a denser pattern of shot. A full choke squeezes more, and a cylinder choke, not at all. A denser pattern may mean slightly greater range with birdshot- but it will also mean the shot pattern is smaller, reducing the chance of hitting a bird in flight. In general, modified is a "middle of the road" choke, and fairly useful in hunting- but not in skeet, trap, or sporting clays.
