Winchester Super X2 opinions, please.
« on: November 30, 2004, 05:11:29 AM »
I am thinking about buying a 3.5" Super X2 from a friend of mine.  I have been shooting 3.5" shells this year out of an over and under.  I really like the extra power since I am not hunting with a dog this year.  The Super X2 fits me well but it is a little heavy.  The price is right though.  I just don't have any experience with these guns.  Have any of you had any problems with them?  Unless I hear alot of bad reports I am going to buy the gun.  For what I am getting it for I won't lose anything if I decide to trade it or sell it later.

No problems with mine or any of my other Winchesters.  But I favor the O/Us for most hunting situations.

I went ahead and bought it.  I'll be using it this weekend duck hunting.  I will also be taking my 11 year old daughter on her first duck hunt. She will be shooting a Remington LT-20 with a youth stock and a 21" barrel.  Wish us luck!

The hunt was good and bad.  There was a severe lack of ducks BUT she did kill her first duck, on the wing, too.  First a bunch of Spoonbills came in and she raised up to shoot and forgot her safety!  I told her that was okay and she learned a lesson.  Then later a few Greenwing Teal came floating in and she got one on the first shot.  That was all the shooting we had but it sure was a great morning!  She's hooked now.
