Spend your money wisely and invest in a casting tuition such as with TE etc .
Money well spent in my humble opinion .
Also Watch YouTube videos for techniques

Not a direct answer, but hopefully it helps a little?
I've been using xtractor 10ft 3.25's for about a year and there is one spot I sometimes fish which is 22 1/4 wraps which it manages quite accurately with 17lb xline and a 4oz lead. It can go further but accuracy goes to pieces, I don't think I'm a good caster.
I bought 3 x Sonik gravity 3.25's new for 50 quid each for when I couldn't get the range I wanted with the xtractor and I've used them once and that was to try them out after I bought them.
My suggestion would be to try the recons and see how you get on, because 'd imagine as long as your reels are up to the task and are using the right lead 20 wraps should be achievable with them, because if I use my example above, I've realised that I don't need the gravities for anything I've come across yet and quite relieved I only bought some 50 quid rods

I was wondering how many wraps are people getting out of their sonik insurgent recons when fishing at distance?
Is it worth getting a dedicated set of rods for casting like shimano tx2's or SCR ST13's?
For context I'm not a great distance caster. I've only needed to hit 15 wraps maximum for the longest time, but I'm going to be fishing waters where I'll need 20+ wraps to hit features
