chrispti Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 Anyone own or previously owned a Winchester SX3? Would like to hear you views/ experiences with them please Ta, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlight32 Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Yep I have one. Not a bad gun and run in the same school as the Browning gold series. Gotta say I don't like the assembly of the gun with the abs recoil sleeve but every auto has its way I suppose. As for handling only go for a 26" or 28" as the 30" model is a bit weildy for hide shooting. I bought mine for wildfowling as it is 3 1/2" mag. The camo finish is good but is a mat finish as opposed to gloss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
