This 12-gauge gas-operated piston shotgun has a 30-inch barrel with an adjustable choke and a 3-inch chamber. The gas-operated piston system reduces felt recoil compared to inertia-driven designs, which matters on a 30-inch barrel gun you'll run through a lot of shells in a clay session. Blued finish over a smoothbore barrel, single bead sight. Weighs 7.2 lbs. and holds 3 rounds. 
 
The adjustable choke is the practical feature that earns its place here. You can dial the shot pattern to match what you're shooting rather than swapping fixed choke tubes.

The Beretta A300 Ultima Sporting generates mostly positive feedback, with the gas-operated system getting the most consistent praise. Owners note it handles recoil well over extended shooting sessions, which is the main practical advantage over inertia designs for clay sports use. Build quality and ergonomics come up often as positives. The gun feels solid and handles intuitively.

Shooting sports users in particular appreciate its versatility across clay disciplines. The adjustable stock features get favorable mentions from shooters who need to fit the gun properly before competing.

On the critical side, weight is the most common complaint. Some shooters find it tiring for prolonged carry. Price comes up occasionally from buyers comparing it to budget alternatives, though most who comment on price still conclude it's justified by the quality.

Overall it sits well within Beretta's sporting shotgun lineup, and most owners come away satisfied with its performance on the clay range.
