Detailed Features 

 
The chrome-lined barrels improve durability and make cleaning easier after a day in the field. Five chokes are included, Cylindrical, Full, Improved Cylinder, Improved Modified, and Modified, covering the range from close-in upland birds to longer clay target shots. The single selective trigger lets you switch between barrels without changing your trigger hand position. The tang safety is mounted where the thumb naturally falls and is ambidextrous. The semi-pistol grip stock and oiled Turkish walnut finish give it a traditional look. 
 

Target Audience 

 
Upland bird hunters who want a light O/U that won't wear them out over a full day of walking. Clay target shooters looking for an entry-to-mid-tier O/U with usable chokes. New shooters stepping up to an O/U from a single or semi-auto. 
 

Usage Scenarios 

1. Upland Game Hunting: The 5.5-lb weight makes this workable for all-day hunts after quail, pheasant, or grouse. 
2. Trap/Skeet Shooting: The adjustable chokes and 26-inch barrel suit clay target work. 
3. General Field Use: A practical 20-gauge O/U for hunters who don't need the extra weight of a 12-gauge.

The Savage Stevens 555 in 20 gauge with Turkish walnut draws generally positive feedback from upland hunters and new O/U buyers, with a few consistent notes about quality control.

The Turkish walnut stock is frequently praised for its grain and finish, it looks better in person than many buyers expect at this price point. The 5.5-lb weight is consistently cited as a genuine advantage for field use; owners report carrying it all day without fatigue that they'd experience with heavier shotguns. Performance with 20-gauge loads is described as smooth, with recoil that's manageable for most shooters including newer ones. The five included chokes add practical value.

Criticism centers on occasional fit-and-finish inconsistencies, some buyers report minor variations in wood-to-metal fit or finish quality between individual guns. Reviewers who handle multiple examples before buying tend to find this less of an issue than those buying sight-unseen. Buyers comparing it to significantly more expensive O/U brands will find differences in finish quality, but at this price tier most owners consider that expected.

Overall sentiment is positive, with the gun well-regarded as a reliable entry-to-mid-tier O/U for upland hunting and casual clay shooting.
