Title: Winchester SXP
Post by: NightHawk24 on May 08, 2022, 02:29:55 PM
Looking into buying a 20GA Winchester SXP with a 24 inch barrel. Just wondering what your guys experiences are with it and what shell/choke combo has been good for you. Thanks in advance!

Not sure what you are looking to spend, but I think you can't go wrong with some Apex#9 and an Indian Creek choke at about .562 constriction. You may have a different choke in mind but I say anything in .560-.570 range will work whether it's a Jebs, IC, Carlson's. I have just always had great patterns with IC.

I shoot a Carlson.568 and TSS #9 in mine. One of the best pettterning guns I've ever owned.

I'm shooting the IC .555 and it shot Hevi-13 #7 great as well as the Fed TSS#9. I haven't tried any of the other TSS yet so not sure. 100% happy with how mine shoots. Trigger could be lighter is my only complaint.

The trigger is terrible on that gun and a pita to make lighter.
