Sawyer 10 Posted July 22, 2008 anyone here have the new winchester sx3? just curious if it shoots as fast as they have advertised Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A2142Phantom 10 Posted July 22, 2008 Yes. I do not have 1st. hand experience with the SX3. but there is no reason why it shouldn't. The SX3 also has a full-auto setting (just in case you didn't know). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtCathy 0 Posted July 22, 2008 If you go to their web site, you can download a short film showing a professional shooter setting speed records with the SX3. The SX3 has an automatic gas-regulating system that lets it shoot very fast and helps with the perceived recoil feeling soft. It also has a number of performance features you can read about but remember it's still a Winchester, so when you take it apart you will see modern and cheap manufacturing procedures.

TMAC 0 Posted July 22, 2008 I own a SX2 which is very similar the SX3 from an operations standpoint. Contrary to the comments above you should not find it to be cheaply built, but a well constructed semi auto. I cannot comment too much on speed because any auto's I have ever owned shoot as fast as I can aim and pull the trigger. No full auto setting ha ha. I dont think you would be dissapointed with this gun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildfowler 0 Posted July 22, 2008 I have one and yes it is fast. depends though on how keen you are to quickly pull the trigger? Also have a Super Nova there both for wildfowling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtCathy 0 Posted July 22, 2008 I was comparing the manufactured internal parts with parts from my two Browning shotguns and Browning pump Trombone .22 and of course my two Benelli shotguns. *****s verses oranges.... my bad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
