The new Performance Shop Ethos Cordoba A.I. BE.S.T. has all of the features fans of the Ethos have come to expect, as well as nearly every additional refinement the Italian-owned shotgun company can muster at this time. Indeed, this shotgun that was designed as the ultimate high-volume Argentinian wingshooting gun is currently the company’s flagship, both in terms of features and price.
The Prince George’s Trap and Skeet Center in Glenn Dale, Md., roared to life on Sept. 20, when the 10th Annual Benelli USA Invitational took center stage.
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.
Benelli's Performance Shop is known for turning out firearms that go far beyond even the already lofty level of the company's products. Now, the Performance Shop has turned its considerable resources toward a hunter favorite: the Benelli Ethos.
When Benelli's original Lupo hit shelves in 2020, it shook up the hunting rifle market as a deadly accurate and reliable hunting gun for the serious backcountry hunter. Now, the company looks to add to that legacy with the Lupo HPR BE.S.T. Standing for "High Precision Rifle," the HPR BE.S.T is intended as a crossover gun, designed to bridge the gap between extreme long--range shooting and hunting.
