Benelli Limited Edition 828U Lead

For 2022, Benelli has taken its venerable upland over/under to a new level with the new 828U Limited Edition, featuring new performance and styling enhancements.

At a glance, the 828U Limited Edition stands apart with its nickel-plated steel frame and elegant game scene engravings along the sides, top and bottom of the receiver—a perfect complement to the shotgun’s luxurious, satin-finished AA-grade walnut furniture.

Benelli Limited Edition 828U Engraving

Both accenting style and providing rugged field performance for the 828U Limited Edition is the BE.S.T. (Benelli Surface Treatment) gloss barrel finish. Utilizing a proprietary coating that calls on nanotechnology and diamond-like carbon particles to provide an armor-tough coating to steel, Benelli says the BE.S.T. finish is so dependable that it includes a 25-year guarantee against rust and corrosion on all BE.S.T. coated parts.

A limited-edition model in the truest sense, Benelli will produce only 200 units of the 828U Limited Edition in 12-gauge with a 28-inch barrel.

As with all other 828U models, the 828U Limited Edition includes all the performance features that have made this over/under a standout in the field, including impulse-activated ejectors, a top lever striker reset and the Benelli Progressive Comfort System recoil mitigation in the stock. Beyond these innovative features, the 828U also sports a removable trigger group for easy cleaning, adjustable drop and cast for a custom fit, and Benelli’s patented steel locking system that prevents shotshell pressure transfer to the receiver and hinge pins.
