The A350 Xtrema is the finest value of any 3.5" shotgun in its class because of Beretta quality and attributes not seen on rival products. This rifle is extremely dependable with a broad variety of ammunition, from ordinary 2 3/4" target or field loads up to the largest 3 1/2" turkey magnums. It features the tested Beretta gas operating system with a self-cleaning piston and cross-tube magazine. A highly recoil-absorbing, non-snagging Micro Core recoil pad minimizes recoil. The unique tri-alloy steel is used to make the excellent Steelium barrels that Beretta uses. These barrels have the best smoothness, straightness, and longevity, as well as the best ballistic performance. With the Optima-Choke HP choke tubes, the shot pattern stays consistent and flawless in all hunting scenarios.
