 In this business you don't just go around calling any old thing "super." That title has to be earned, and Winchester has done just that with its new Super X3 Universal Hunter shotgun.

Featuring a synthetic stock with texturized gripping services in Mossy Oak Break-Up Infinity, the Super X3 offers a self-adjusting Active Valve that is capable of firing 12 shells in 1.442 seconds.

Offered in 12- or 20-gauge versions, the Super X3 features a lightweight magazine tube and recoil spring system, cutting this shotgun weight down by almost a pound.

The suggested retail price is $1,229.99.
