I picked the Winchester SX2 up last year from a guy, almost new.  I have not given it a try at ducks.  I use it as a guest gun.  I went through it this weekend and gave it a good cleaning.  I picked up a Briley extended choke for it.  I still prefer the Benelli SBEII.  It's light, swings good, well balanced and it shoot very good, so I haven't opted to change.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

For my first duck season a couple years back the inlaw's bought me a benelli nova camo. I hunted the crap out of that gun and it never had a problem once. Had my father in law hunting next to me with his 870sm  and that stopped working on him. hunted next to a buddy with a mossberg pump and that quit working on him from the sand.  On a seaduck hunt my wife was using a franchi I12 that busted halfway through her limit. meanwhile on all occasions my Nova never quit, never even had a hickup.
"Right now, I am thinking that If my grandmother was here, she would be lecturing me about how there are poor people in Africa, that would just love to have a Ruger, I would just say "Great, granny, lets just ship all the Rugers to Africa!"

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

I sold my first Benelli Nova, as I wore it out.  The guys I know that shoot the Benelli Nova's now have permanent chokes.  They rusted up fast.  I remove my shotgun choke after almost every hunt and have started using.  I now use Jet-Lube, Nikal extreme service anti-seize lubricant.  It has a heat rating of 2600F. I would swear by this product for shotgun chokes.  Best stuff ever.  No stuck chokes.
Cut em!
