Horrible trigger design. I've done trigger work on two SXP Longbeard 20 gauges and both were "acceptable" post work. My gun accounted for 4 gobblers this year w/ a 15/8 oz. handload of TSS. 9's. Winchester really needs to address the quality control issues on these shotguns, esp. the triggers.

A little off topic and sorry to slightly high jack this thread, but since we are on crappy Winchester triggers, I have an SX3 in 12 gauge and the trigger has a lot of slop in it. Can you folks who did/had trigger work go in to detail on what was done? I am thinking of tinkering with it this summer to try to tighten up the slop and lower the poundage. Or is the SX3 trigger a completely different animal than the SXP and I'm stuck with what I got?

I am shooting a Carlson's .568 in my 500 moss 870 Rem and Stevens 301 with Federal TSS #9 all three guns are turkey killing machines at 40+ yds.
