Detailed Features
The gas-operated action cycles smoothly and takes some recoil out of the equation, which helps with follow-up shots. The choke system uses Beretta/Benelli Mobil Choke threads and includes flush chokes (Modified, Full) plus an extended ported XXF choke for tight turkey patterns. The checkered synthetic stock holds up in wet conditions, and the fixed fiber optic front sight gives a clear sight picture in varying light. At 6.85 lbs. it's manageable to carry through a full morning in the field.
Usage
The Mossy Oak Country DNA finish is well-suited for ground blinds and open woods alike. The XXF extended choke is the obvious choice for turkey distances. Gas operation keeps recoil lighter than comparable inertia-driven guns at this price range, which matters when shooting from awkward blind positions.
