Winchester 1300 XTR build
March 31, 2020, 11:16:54 PM
Back in the summer I bought a Winchester 1300 XTR at an estate auction. This was a close friend of mines gun. It's been sitting in the safe and I really didn't have a use for it but mainly wanted it just to have one of his guns. This gun is in pretty good shape with a few scratches here or there. I'm wanting to turn it into a turkey killer. What choke would you guys reccomend for this? Probably going to be shooting TSS #9. Thanks Old Gobbler!

I've had good luck with Indian Creek BDS chokes in my 1300's. You didn't mention what gauge.
