Weatherby Sorix Storm 12 Gauge 28" 3in Shotgun - XST1228MAG$1,345.51
Availability: In Stock
The Weatherby Sorix Storm 12-gauge shotgun is a modern inertia-operated semi-auto built for hunters and sport shooters who demand reliability in tough conditions. With its 28" barrel and 3.5" chamber, the Sorix Storm delivers the versatility serious waterfowl and upland hunters need, while its thoughtfully engineered controls and user-centric design make it equally at home on the clay course. Whether you're working brush in fading light or executing fast follow-up shots, this Italian-made shotgun combines proven inertia recoil engineering with practical features that matter in the field.
Weatherby equipped the Sorix Storm with oversized controls specifically sized for fast, reliable operation in less-than-ideal hunting conditions—think wet gloves, cold hands, and high adrenaline. The slammer button (bolt release), charging handle, and safety are all oversized for positive engagement. The aggressive competition-cut receiver speeds reloading, and the stepped rib paired with a fiber optic sight delivers quick, confident target acquisition. If you shoot left-handed, the SHIFT System lets you swap the charging handle and safety to transform it into a true southpaw shotgun without tools or gunsmithing.
Built to last, the receiver and barrel wear a hardened Cerakote finish that stands up to salt spray, mud, and weather abuse. The stock features textured grip surfaces and a soft cheekpiece for all-day shooting comfort. Adjustable stock shims let you dial in cast and fit to your frame. The Sorix comes optics-ready with factory-drilled, tapped receiver (8-40 holes), so mounting a sight or scope is straightforward. Five Crio Plus choke tubes (cylinder, improved cylinder, modified, improved modified, and full) ship in the box with a wrench and carry case, giving you the flexibility to adapt for any bird or distance. The hand-painted finish on the stock—completed in Sheridan, WY—adds a personal touch to a shotgun engineered for serious use.
