Beretta has announced the A400 Xtreme Plus shotgun series is now available in 20-gauge models and new camo patterns. The A400 Xtreme Plus 20 Gauge features Beretta’s exclusive Steelium Plus barrels—a first for hunting shotguns—providing tailored patterning for hunting loads, along with felt-recoil mitigation.

Further drawing from the competition world, the A400 Xtreme Plus barrel features a 7X7 stepped rib with an integral mid-bead and fiber-optic front-bead, in order to ensure proper fit and sight picture for any condition. Next, enhancing the A400 Xtreme Plus is the addition of an extended charging handle and bolt release, to allow for easier manipulation during cold and rainy days, as well as an enlarged loading port for faster loading in adverse conditions. Finally, Beretta’s signature Kick-Off Mega system combined with a soft comb stock ensures less felt recoil, making the A400 Xtreme Plus the softest-shooting waterfowl gun available.

For more information on this line extension, which comes with five Optima-Bore HP Black Extended Chokes, and is currently available in Realtree Max-7, Mossy Oak Bottomland and Optifade Timber, visit beretta.com. MSRP: $1,929

Hardware Review: Browning BAR MK 4 Hunter

First, the Browning Automatic Rifle addressed in this article is not the renowned 1918 BAR of military fame. I’ve actually seen an American Rifleman editor hunt hogs with a reproduction 1918 BAR. While it was a spectacle to behold, it’s probably not the optimal choice for the deer woods, but hey, who am I to judge? The Browning BAR we’re talking about in this article is the iconic hunting rifle.
