Key Features
- Back-Bored Barrel: This 24-inch barrel reduces felt recoil and helps produce denser shot patterns, giving you a better chance at clean kills on wary toms.
- Inflex Recoil Pad: The Inflex pad soaks up recoil, so you stay on target for quick follow-up shots when that gobbler surprises you.
- TruGlo Fiber-Optic Sights: Adjustable front and rear fiber optics give you a fast, bright sight picture even in the low light of early morning or late evening setups.
- Mossy Oak Obsession Finish: This full-coverage camo pattern blends into varied terrain from hardwoods to fields, helping you stay hidden from sharp-eyed turkeys.
- Drilled-and-Tapped Receiver: You can mount a red dot or scope easily, which is a major advantage for hunters who want precise shot placement at longer ranges.
Who It’s For
This shotgun is built for the turkey hunter who wants a lightweight, fast-handling pump gun with reduced recoil. It works well for hunters who stalk public land or hike deep into private woods, because it weighs only 6.5 pounds. If you prefer a 20 Gauge for less shoulder punishment but still want pattern density that drops birds cleanly, this fits. It’s also a solid choice for younger or smaller-framed shooters who need a manageable shotgun that still hits hard.

Yes, it includes a factory-installed extra-full turkey choke tube that helps produce tight patterns at typical turkey hunting ranges.
Can I mount a red dot sight on this shotgun?
Yes, the receiver is drilled and tapped, so you can mount a red dot or scope using standard bases. This gives you faster target acquisition in low light.
Is this shotgun suitable for left-handed shooters?
The Winchester SXP Turkey is a right-handed model with a right-side ejection port and safety. Left-handed shooters may prefer a left-handed pump, but many adapt to this setup.
What is the length of pull on the Winchester SXP Turkey 20ga?
The length of pull is 14 inches, which is standard for adult shooters. This helps you get a comfortable cheek weld and consistent mount.
How does the back-bored barrel help with patterns?
The back-bored barrel reduces friction as the shot travels, which can improve pattern density and reduce felt recoil. This means more pellets on target at longer distances.
Over 60% of turkey hunters in the U.S. now use pump-action shotguns, and the Winchester SXP Turkey 20ga is built to meet that demand with reliable performance and low recoil.
