    Beretta A300

    Anyone shooting this? Thought? Looking for an all around 12 gauge an it fits my budget, American made is a bumping plus too.

    responded to in the lounge. I have no issues with mine. I've ran light up to heavy turkey loads. This shotgun came highly recommended to me from a buddy that owns and operated a sporting clay range. I got the wood stock/blue barrel model off of gunbroker bnib for $510.

    I like my old Remington semi auto 11-48, the a300 is a lighter and softer recoiling gun. I don't think you'll have any regrets with the outlander.

    Both my dad and I both have one in 12 gauge and have been excellent guns. Both get used all year round for multiple species and have had zero issues. If I could do anything different it would be I should’ve bought both the 12 and the 20.

    Thanks for the thoughts, not much traffic here this time of year. Seems like a lot of solid positive reviews.

    I have a 390 and a 303. You can't go wrong with the A300. The "300" series from Beretta are, in my opinion, the best autoloaders ever made.

    I have an A300 also. Great gun. I shoot trap and I've had mine for over 2 yrs now and never one failure. It is light for a semi also. We have an NRA Day here at my Club every year and the woman that have shot it found that the recoil is not bad.

    Thanks for the opinions, my wonderful wife gifted me one for my birthday (she must stalk the BBC). We have had enough time to put 4 shells through it, I shot it 3 and she shot it once. I will say the first one didn't eject but the others were fine. Just light 1oz field loads.

    I'd say it needed to seat itself on the first round.
    Shot trap last night with mine hit 21 with full choke. Only second time shooting since November.
