Winchester Model 1300 Slug Hunter

About the Winchester Model 1300 Slug Hunter

The Winchester Model 1300 Slug Hunter is a pump-action shotgun chambered in 12 gauge with a 3-inch chamber, purpose-built for deer hunting in shotgun-only regions. It combines the fast-cycling Model 1300 'Speed Pump' twin-action-bar mechanism with a 22-inch barrel offered in rifled or smoothbore form, adjustable rifle sights, and a drilled-and-tapped receiver or cantilever mount for a scope. The Slug Hunter was fed from a tubular magazine and stocked in satin walnut or brown laminate, delivering accurate slug performance out to roughly 100 meters.

The Model 1300 earned the nickname 'Speed Pump' for its light, fast-cycling twin-action-bar mechanism, and the Slug Hunter carried that reputation into the deer woods of shotgun-only hunting states.
