I have a Winchester SXP Waterfowl that I would like to have drilled and tapped for a scope base (deer hunting in the fall). I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a gunsmith in the area.

Thanks,
 
Precision Arms are shotgun specialists. King City. Just North of Steeles. You going to change barrels too? Or just buy another choke tube? Just curious.

I have had pretty good luck with this shotgun with Remington Sluggers. Challengers which tend to shoot very well in all my previous shotguns won't pattern worth a damn in this thing. I bought a bunch of other slugs to try out in the gun with the standard barrel. I know it isn't the ideal gun for this but it was free so why not?


I love the shotgun though. So much better built than the 500's and 870 Express' of today.
 
Hi. Free is good. Slugs are just like rifle and handgun ammo. If you don't reload, you have to try a box of as many brands as you can to find the ammo your shotgun likes. Two or 3 inches at 100 yards is good enough for deer.
What choke do you have now? Doesn't really matter as a slug won't hurt the gun, but slugs tend to shoot better with an IC choke.

The shotgun came with IC, M, and F chockes. I have tried the IC an M and believe it or not the modified shoots the best. I have though of spending the money on getting a rifled choke for it as I've heard good things in improving accuracy with foster type slugs.
