Winchester 1300 12 ga. magnum

Seabeescotty · 06-03-2008, 03:24 PM

Just brought a 1300 home, in 12 ga.magnum. It's an older gun, but looks darn near new. Think 250 is too much? It came with three chokes, and the wrench. Oh yeah, the reason for it was I bought some 00 buckshot shells, and realized I didn't have a gun to shoot them out of, stupid me!! I didn't see the 3 inch magnum til after I paid for 'em.

Blue book list it at 250.00 for 98% with 3 chokes....

Sounds like you got a good deal or right near what it's worth there seabee. Congrats.

Is this going to be a personal one for you or one you'll sell at your shop?

its a decent shotgun, ive got one stoked with 3" 00buck for HD. you paid top dollar for it, but the extra chokes help.

Dang, sorry I'm so late answering, but I had to knock the weeds down, around the shooting table, for next weekend. Then I got involved with a filthy .22 rifle, Winchester mod. 190 to be exact. We had an argument, and I won, and it's in one piece again, clean, and shoots just fine. Then I had to turn my attention back to an older Marlin 39A, that had hung over a door for fifteen years. Needless to say, lots of elbow grease, and i only got one of those left, that works worth a darn.

Anyway, yes it's for the castle, and is loaded with magnum 00 buckshot, 15 .22 caliber pellets. I figure if I can't find my glasses, it'll do just fine! It patterned real nice, and tight, and looks really good. I don't have to do a thing to it. Annd I have a soft place in my heart for Winchester anything!!

Rich, I don't get deals real often, but every once in a while, like my Win. Mod. 70, pre-64, it was $200, and worth every last cent! It's a .270 naildriver and deer dropper, so full price for this one is okay!
