Performance and Action

The WINCHESTER SXP TRAP uses an inertia-assisted slide-action—Winchester’s Super X design—that delivers exceptionally fast follow-up shots. The system is tuned for competitive trap: the mechanism can deliver three shots in a half second when operated by a practiced shooter. A crossbolt safety and three-shot capacity (with included speed-plug system) make it ready for formal trap layouts and informal range sessions alike.

Barrel, Sights, and Patterning

The shotgun ships with a 12 gauge, 3″ chamber and comes with three Invector-Plus choke tubes (F, IM, M), giving shooters quick options for pattern density. Choose between 30″ or 32″ back-bored barrels with a trap rib and hard chrome-plated chamber and bore for longevity and easy cleaning. The TruGlo fiber-optic front sight and ivory mid bead provide a clear aiming reference under varied lighting.

Why the 12 Gauge Works for Trap

12 gauge is the standard for trap competition because it offers broad shot selection and consistent patterns at range. The 3″ chamber adds flexibility for heavier target loads when needed while maintaining manageable recoil with the Inflex Technology recoil pad.

Fit, Finish, and Handling

The SXP Trap pairs a satin-finish hardwood stock with a high-profile Monte Carlo trap comb and a satin walnut finish for a classic look that aligns the eye naturally with the rib. The Inflex Technology recoil pad and matte black aluminum alloy trigger help control recoil impulse and trigger feel during long tournament days. The non-glare matte finish on the barrel and receiver reduces distracting reflections on sunny ranges.
