Key Features
- Kick-Off Recoil Reduction System – Built into the stock, this hydraulic system reduces felt recoil by up to 40%, making it easier for new and younger shooters to stay on target and shoot comfortably through a long day in the field.
- Enlarged Bolt Handle and Release – Gloved hands won’t fumble. The oversized controls make loading, unloading, and clearing malfunctions quicker and more positive, especially in cold or wet weather.
- Ventilated Stepped Rib with Fiber Optic Front Sight – The stepped rib reduces glare and provides a clear sight picture. The fiber optic front bead glows in low light, helping you acquire fast-moving targets like pheasants or clays.
- Mossy Oak Bottomland Finish – This classic camo pattern blends into dry fields, marshes, and timber. The synthetic stock resists moisture and scratches, so you can hunt in tough cover without worrying about the finish.
Who It’s For
The Beretta A300 Ultima is for families, youth shooters, and beginners who want a reliable semi-auto shotgun that reduces recoil and fits a variety of shooters. It’s also ideal for hunters who need a do-it-all field gun for upland birds, waterfowl, and turkey. The 28-inch barrel balances swing speed with reach, making it a great all-around choice.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Recoil reduction is real – new shooters and smaller-framed family members can shoot 100 rounds without flinching.
- Pro: Accepts both Mobil and Benelli choke tubes, giving you more options for pattern tuning.
- Pro: Gas-operated action cycles 2-3/4 and 3-inch shells reliably, even with light target loads.
- Con: The synthetic stock doesn’t have a shim system for cast/height adjustment – you may need a gunsmith for a perfect fit on very short or tall shooters.

FAQ

Yes, it includes three Mobil/Benelli-style flush choke tubes (IC, M, F) in the box. You can also use any aftermarket Benelli Mobil choke.

No, it’s a fixed hydraulic system inside the stock. It works automatically to reduce felt recoil by up to 40% without any user adjustment.
Can left-handed shooters use this shotgun?
Yes, the A300 Ultima has an ambidextrous safety located on the trigger guard. The bolt handle and release are also easy to reach for left-handed shooters.
