Title: Any NWTF Winchester 1300 20 ga. shooters?
Post by: Extremesolo on March 28, 2019, 04:33:14 PM
The NWTF (win cam stock) winchester 1300 seems to be a rare bird.  I have seen quite a few 1300s in 20 gauge but finding one with the win cam stock and the NWTF engraving is tough.  My understanding is that they are fairly rare and similar to the old school mossy oak remington 870s and 1187s in that they tend to be expensive when found.  Does anyone here own one and do you hunt with yours?  Curious how they pattern with TSS or HW #7.  They seem like they would make a great turkey setup.

I've seen a few of those over the years.  The rare one to find in my opinion is the NWTF 1300 short stroke 12 gauge with 18.5" barrel in full factory camo with factory adjustable sights.  Like an idiot I had one and let it go because I went to the 20 gauge.   Here's a few pictures of the one I sold:

My oldest boy has one. It was given to him by a friend of mine. It was never fired until he got it.

How did they pattern out of the one you have for sale on GB?

I have one but it has found itself collecting dust this year.

Also have the 22" engraved laminated from the 80's. It killed one last week.
