M2 or SX3

[SOCOM304]

M2 all the way. I absolutely love mine. As stated earlier, I would get the Wolfe spring for it. Definitely a top notch shotgun.

My buddy just got an SX3 20 ga turkey cantilever and its super nice, but I can't speak for the M2, although I am sure its a great gun.

M2 , no question

m 1 in the 20 gauge for me shooting hand loaded tss 9's.  Running a burris fastfire 3 on it.  so my guess is that the m2 is just  as good of a gun as the m1.

I like my m1 20ga better then the m2s. Reason being is I feel the m1 balances better without all that rubber that is added to the m2 stock.
And my bolt is camoed ?, cant get that in an m2

The Inv + bbl will produce a better pattern over a large variety of loads, but they are both great guns. Both have pros and cons. You can't go wrong with either.

My wife has a m2 26" and I have a sx3 26".
Both are great guns and will blow your minds with the patterns they can produce.
I have ic chokes for both and they are very comparable. The best pattern I've ever gotten with the 1 5/8 tss loaf was with the m2 and 555 ic, 378 in the ten. This was the best, normally not quit that good.
To me, if I was buying again I would handle both and pick the one that handled best for me.
The recoil is a lot less with the sx3 gas and weight advantage but on the other hand the m2 is a feather to carry around.
I would not be concerned about the pattern as I think both will pattern better than you expect if you never shot tss.

For what it's worth I hunted the sx3 this years some and never got the m2 out of the safe
