What is the best all-round model of Winchester SX2 or SX3 (including 12 gauge and 20 gauge)?

Interested in options on gauge, chokes, wood vs synthetic, length of pull, to barrel length, etc.
 
The reason I ask is that I used to own a Winchester SX3 in camo with 3.5" chamber and 26" barrel. It would take sight very fast but I found it used to pattern and shot slightly up and to the left (as did my Winchester SXP Pump with 3.5" chamber and 26" barrel). I have a Browning Silver Lightning in Wood with 3" chamber and 28" barrel that shoots excellent. I have purchased a used Wood SX3 Sporting Adjustable (with 2.75" chamber and 30" barrel) that i have not had the chance to use yet. I am considering another SX3 for waterfowl hunting (instead of using the SX3 Sporting).

You might have to use the shims to adjust the SX3 to fit you.

Smart move. An x3 sporting is not much of a waterfowl gun IMO
