Description
The Weatherby Sorix 12 Ga is a shotgun chambered in 12 Gauge with a 28-inch barrel.
Weatherby Sorix 12 Ga Overview
The Weatherby Sorix is an inertia-driven semi-automatic shotgun built for hunters. The receiver has an aggressive competition cut for faster loading, with an oversized bolt release and charging handle that are easy to work with gloves on. Fit matters more with a shotgun than with almost any other firearm, because you point it rather than aim it. Check that the stock length lets you mount the gun smoothly with your eye centered over the rib, and pattern the gun with the chokes and loads you plan to use.
A few trips to the trap or sporting clays field before the season will sharpen your swing and help you learn how the gun handles.
Design and Features
The synthetic stock and forend are covered in camo and have textured grip panels. The Sorix comes with a set of choke tubes and shims to adjust drop and cast, and the recoil pad softens heavy waterfowl loads.
Handling in the Field
The inertia system keeps the action clean because no gas enters the receiver, so it runs reliably in cold, wet and muddy conditions. It handles 2.75 and 3 inch shells.
Action and Trigger
The trigger group drops out for cleaning, and the cross-bolt safety is easy to find. The oversized controls make it easy to load and unload in a blind.
Sights and Optics
A ventilated rib and front bead give a fast, clear sight picture for moving targets.
The 12 Gauge Cartridge
The 12 Gauge offers a good balance of power, accuracy, and recoil for its intended use.
Setup and Accessories
Set your shotgun up for its job: hunters will want a sling and a few choke tubes, clay shooters may add a recoil pad, and a home-defense setup benefits from a weapon light. Pattern every load and choke combination you plan to use.
Ownership Tips
Read the owner’s manual fully before your first range trip, and keep the manual, box, and receipt with your records for warranty service and resale. Unload the shotgun and confirm it is empty before cleaning. Field-strip it according to the owner’s manual, scrub the bore with a brush and patches, and wipe carbon from the action and choke threads. Apply a light coat of quality gun oil to the contact points, and wipe the exterior with a lightly oiled cloth before storage.
