Title: Super X3 NWTF is here! Some good, some bad.
Post by: robertreed711 on March 02, 2019, 10:53:52 AM
Picked it up yesterday. Overall I like it, seems to be a quality piece. One concern is the choke threads. It was a bear to remove the factory choke, very gritty. I worked on it for a while last night trying to get it cleaned out and threading smoothly, seems decent now but wish I had another choke to try to see if the barrel threads seem ok. I do have another choke in the mail that is supposed to be here monday. After I try that I will probably be contacting Winchester about it.

The rings I had were too low so no scope mounted yet.

Thanks man! I've gotten it much better, I can now spin the choke in and out with just 2 fingers. Still curious to see how the Carlson's will thread though.

Function tested it today with some 2 3/4" target loads. Ran well.

Getting closer. Carlson's Longbeard choke, Leupold PRW rings, Nikon Turkey Pro. Can't wait for this weather to break!
