Beretta has announced its new A400 Xtreme Plus shotgun, designed to provide the comfort, power and reliability needed for all conditions encountered during waterfowl season. Building on the company’s A400 Xtreme Unico model, the A400 Xtreme Plus combines the advanced barrel technologies used to excel at clay shooting with the needs of the waterfowl hunter.

Sporting a Steelium Plus barrel design, the new A400 Xtreme Plus features a 14-inch forcing cone for greater recoil reduction, improved shot pattern consistency and better accuracy. A 7x7 stepped rib with a fiber optic front sight and an integral mid-bead provides an optimized sight plane. The receiver features an enlarged loading port, extended charging handle and bolt release, allowing for easy operation while wearing gloves.

Beretta’s Kick-Off Mega system and Soft-Comb stock ensures less felt recoil; the company claims that the combination of the two makes the A400 Xtreme Plus the softest-shooting waterfowl gun on the market.

The A400 Xtreme Plus has an MSRP of $1,750 and is available in Realtree Max-5, Mossy Oak Bottomland, DRT, Black Synthetic and Optifade finish.
