It is also precision-bored and back-bored for improved pattern control. The gun also features a vented rib with adjustable sights, an extended magazine tube, and a cross-bolt safety. The crossbolt safety prevents accidental discharge upon cycling, and it can be easily turned on or off without repositioning your hand.

The trigger of the SKB SHOTGUNS 600 is smooth and light. Its pull weight is adjustable from one to three and a half pounds, making it suitable for even the most novice shooters. With its reliable, adjustable trigger and crisp break, the SKB SHOTGUNS 600 ensures a consistent shot with every pull. The overall fit and finish of the gun is also exceptional, with no machining marks or rough edges.

When it comes to performance, the SKB SHOTGUNS 600 is a precise and accurate shotgun. It is a smooth cyclist and the gun readily takes various types of shells—like lead, steel, and buckshot—with no detectable malfunction or damage to the chamber. Because of the superior engineering and craftsmanship, the gun fire and cycles very consistently and reliably.

The SKB SHOTGUNS 600 is an excellent choice for novice and experienced shooters alike. Its design makes it easy to use and handle, and its adjustable stock makes it comfortable to carry and shoot.
