Beretta 28 Gauge A400 Upland Magnum
Upland bird hunters require shotguns to be highly maneuverable, comfortable, reliable, and capable of performing at the distances required by the moment. It’s that latter point that takes many models out of the running for hunting purposes, especially if you’re running a sub-gauge. Enter the Beretta 28 Gauge A400 Upland Magnum, a 28 gauge shotgun made specifically for upland bird hunters that has a 3-inch chamber. This shotgun doesn’t just get the job done, it does it in harder-hitting style.
Beretta says the 28 Gauge A400 Upland Magnum perfectly blends the classic Upland line aesthetic with modern touches. This shotgun is made to look good and perform beyond the hunter’s expectations. From the beautiful wooden stock and forend to the brushed finish and engraving on the receiver, this is a gun made in homage to the legendary shotguns bird hunters have used for decades.
The 28 Gauge A400 Upland Magnum offers a bevy of bird-hunting-friendly features. It has a vented rib which many shotgunners enjoy for its ability to draw the eye to the point of aim to the factory front sight. In addition, this shotgun utilizes Beretta’s Kick Off Plus technology which is designed to reduce felt recoil by up to 50%. That’s an especially important feature when running the bigger two-inch shotshells through this gun. As for that three-inch chamber, it’s excellent for versatility. It allows hunters to use light dove loads or heavier duck waterfowl ammo, depending on the target.
