The Weatherby Sorix Storm in 12 gauge (brand part no. XST1228MAG) is an inertia-driven semi-automatic shotgun built around a 28-inch barrel with a 3-inch chamber, giving hunters a fast-cycling platform ready for optics straight from the box. Weatherby drills and taps the receiver for direct mounting, pairs a stepped rib with an LPA fiber optic front sight, and coats the receiver and barrel in Cerakote beneath a hand-painted Storm camo stock. Adjustable stock shims allow cast and fit adjustments, and the Shift System lets the charging handle and safety be swapped for left-hand operation. Among semi-auto shotguns in the semi-auto shotguns category, the Sorix Storm favors hunters who want factory optics-ready mounting paired with true ambidextrous handling.
