Weatherby Sorix 12 Gauge Bolt 3" 2+1 28" Drilled & Tapped Receiver, Adjustable Hush Camo Synthetic Stock, Ambidextrous
Weatherby
The Weatherby Sorix 20 gauge bolt shotgun is built for hunters who want a modern, purpose-built platform without compromise. This 3-inch 2+1 magazine-fed bolt gun features a 28-inch barrel with a drilled and tapped receiver—ready for optics or traditional sighting systems. The inertia recoil action is engineered for reliability in the field, while an aggressive competition-cut receiver makes reloading fast and intuitive when it counts.
Weatherby engineered the Sorix with practical features that matter in real hunting conditions. Oversized controls—the bolt release button, charging handle, and safety—function smoothly even when you're wearing gloves or operating in wet, cold, or muddy terrain. The adjustable Hush Camo synthetic stock soaks up recoil and pairs durability with a modern look that blends across varied hunting landscapes.
Ambidextrous operation is built in via Weatherby's SHIFT SYSTEM, which lets you swap the charging handle and safety to configure the shotgun for left-hand shooting. No gunsmith trip required—adapt the gun to fit your natural shooting stance. The receiver and barrel wear a durable Cerakote finish, while the camo stock is hand painted for a rugged, finished appearance.
The 20 gauge profile and bolt-action layout make this a nimble choice for upland hunting, clays, or home defense without the snap of a 12 gauge. Included chokes cover a full range: Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and Full.

The 20 gauge 3-inch chamber is effective for upland game, waterfowl (depending on local regulations), and clays.

Always check local regulations and choose appropriate loads and chokes for your specific game.
