Won a near mint Winchester 1300 Defender on GB a few weeks ago. I have no plans to make it "tacticool" beyond adding a flashlight, which I have already done. I mounted a Surefire G2X Tactical LED Flashlight using a CDM Gear MOD-C Clamp. I really like how clean this all looks.
The 2nd part of this post is a range report. Took the 1300 to the range yesterday and killed some cardboard with Federal Tactical LE132 00 Buck. I made some crude targets from a cardboard box and shot at 5, 10 and 15 yards. At 5 yards, all 9 pellets punched a 1" hole. At 10 yards, all 9 pellets were within 2.5". At 15 yards, 7 pellets were within 2", 8 pellets were within 3.25", and all 9 pellets were within 5.5". I am very impressed with the LE132 ... very tight patterns out of an 18.5" barrel, and very easy on the shoulder.
