Whether you’re a waterfowler, upland hunter or clay target shooter, you’ll find something to be excited about this year. Here are our picks for the best new shotguns for hunters in 2024.
Spandau Shotguns, a division of SDS Imports, has launched its Spandau S2 Shotgun—a 12-gauge made in four different configurations for turkey, waterfowl and even upland hunters.
HEVI-Shot has expanded its shotshell line to include its 12 g/cc tungsten shot in .410-bore. This shot is over 50 percent more dense than traditional steel shot, making the HEVI-XII a logical choice for those who like to hunt waterfowl with the sub-gauge shotguns.
Using a lead-free copper monometal design, with a polymer tip over a hollow cavity, the Freight Train Copper gives a huge ballistic advantage over conventional slugs.
Featuring a shortened barrel, reduced-length magazine tube and a lightweight carbon-fiber stepped rib, the new Montefeltro Ultra Light weighs 6.3 pounds for the 12-gauge model and 5.3 pounds for the 20-gauge model.
