Title: Followed me home...
Post by: Holston on December 28, 2011, 12:37:02 PM
Went to handle the SX2 once more, couldn't turn down the price.

I hope to give it a good workout at the duck swamp in the next couple weeks.   Kinda glad it had the bead as well as the adjustable sights.  Be a good time to check function in the freezing wet conditions.

Hopefully can stock up on some quality turkey ammo and grab a couple chokes in the next bit to try out before this spring.

Anyone else shooting these?

Finally!!  :z-winnersmiley: JK.  If I wasn't already a Benelli man, I'd most likely own a Winchester.  Great guns!

That is a beautiful weapon! :icon_thumright:
Congrats on your purchase!
I have a buddy that has the SX3, and has a comp-n-choke and is pleased with the patterns he is getting.

If that gun shoots anywhere close to how it looks you have a winner there.

Thanks guys.

Hope to see some ducks/geese in the morning and see how it runs.

I'm pretty excited about it, it's the first decent shotgun I've ever owned.

It's neither a Benelli or a Browning?

What are you getting at?




Nice looking gun.!!

Love the camo.
Friend has an earlier Winchester in the original SX. It's a turkey killing machine.

let us know how it performs.

God Bless,

It happens to us all. 

Like listening to the wife during turkey season about some girly stuff and in replying to her comments, something slips out about turkey calls, shot patterns, or new shells unknowingly to us.

"What do you mean this dress looks real gobble?'"  "Are you saying I'm fat?"

:TooFunny:


God Bless,

Would you guys recommend "deep cleaning" the barrel before I hit the patterning board?
