Title: Winchester SX3 w/26 inch barrel and Carlson 575 Choke
Post by: Yelper on May 29, 2020, 11:45:53 AM
Shot my SX3 20 ga this morning with ninja TSS 8.5 Shot. Temp was 68 and kinda humid.
Barrel length is 26 inch.
Sight-Burris FF3
Carlson 575 choke. 
Shots are 20yds, 30yds, 40yds and 50yd shots.

Note: I did change POA after 20 yd shot because it was a tad high.

Nice shooting! I'm shooting the Carlsons 568 in my Winchester sx-3 20 ga with tss 9 shot. Patterns are very similar to yours. These 20 ga are fun to shoot, took 3 birds with mine this year all bang flop from 30 to 40 yards.

How did ya mount the FF3 on your SX3? I have one and been thinking about putting one on it but I don't know if I wanna get it drilled and tapped. Is there another way?

That model is the universal hunter and it was drilled at the factory. I had a sx3 12ga not drilled and sent just the receiver to sumtoy and they drilled it and put his base on it for the ff3. Best way to mount one in my opinion.

I see. Mine isn't drilled and tapped is why I was asking. How high is the sight up off the receiver?
