Depends, if you are hunting doves or small upland game bird an under over shotgun or side by side will work, although you will not want to get it dirty. You will not want to use it for deer or turkey when you are on the ground or getting down and dirty. For that I would recommend a good Remington 870 pump or semi. If you are going goose or duck I would recommend getting the shotgun in a 3" or 3 1/2" round in 12 gauge so you can pack a good punch. For goose I use Winchester Blind Side 3 1/2". If any of this helps.

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.
