Winchester SX4 Hybrid Hunter 12GA 28" Semi-Auto Shotgun FDE

The Winchester SX4 Hybrid Hunter delivers proven semi-automatic reliability for waterfowl and upland game hunting with its gas-operated Active Valve system. This 12-gauge platform combines the durability of Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finish with TrueTimber Prairie camouflage for effective field concealment.

What Makes This Different

The Active Valve gas system automatically adjusts to different loads without manual intervention, cycling everything from light 2¾" target loads to heavy 3" magnum shells. Unlike traditional gas systems that require adjustment or cleaning between load changes, the SX4 maintains consistent function across the full range of 12-gauge ammunition. The oversized bolt handle and enlarged loading port facilitate faster reloads in field conditions.

Key Features

• Active Valve gas system cycles 2¾" to 3" shells automatically
• 28" barrel with Flat Dark Earth Cerakote corrosion protection
• TrueTimber Prairie camo synthetic stock with textured grip surfaces
• 4+1 capacity with drop-out trigger group for easy maintenance
• Three Invector-Plus choke tubes included (Full, Modified, Improved Cylinder)
• Aluminum alloy receiver reduces overall weight to 6.8 pounds
• Inflex Technology recoil pad reduces felt recoil by up to 50%

Field performance centers on the reliable cycling system that functions in temperatures from -40°F to 140°F without adjustment. The 28" barrel length provides optimal velocity for waterfowl hunting while maintaining balance for upland bird work. Hunters report consistent patterns with both steel and lead shot through the included choke tubes. The synthetic stock resists warping in wet conditions and provides secure handling with gloved hands.
