Semi auto for under $300 is gonna be tough. Sporting clays with a pump is less than ideal for sure.

A Buddy of mine bought a SA-80 for his wife, she's small, and shoots it very well and likes it. He got it in 20 and she will not shoot a 12 due to recoil.

I will agree that youth model might be too small. My husband bought me a Beretta youth model in 20 ga. I struggled to shoot that thing well for years. Finally went to every store and tried every shotgun I could get my hands on. Bought a Beretta A400 Xtreme in 12 ga with the 26 inch barrel, and it was like night and day. My shooting immediately improved. The barrel length and balance point tend to be the biggest factors in finding a shotgun that handles well for a woman IMO.
The other shotgun I’ve always shot extremely well is my hubby’s now retired 11-87 Light Contour. Nothing special about it, but it handles really well for me.
