Beretta expands its Ultraleggero Kick-Off over-and-under shotgun lineup with the addition of a new 20-gauge configuration, bringing the model’s combination of lightweight handling, refined performance and recoil reduction to hunters who prefer the versatility and feel of a smaller gauge.
Designed for upland hunters who spend long days in the field, the Ultraleggero was engineered around a lightweight steel receiver that maintains the strength and reliability expected from a Beretta shotgun while reducing unnecessary weight. Its skeletonized receiver, aluminum forend iron system, lightweight trigger guard, increased stock cavity and Steelium Optima-Bore® HP barrels work together to create a fast-handling shotgun built to move naturally in the field. The Ultraleggero Kick-Off adds Beretta’s Kick-Off Plus recoil-reduction system, which uses elastomer shock absorbers and return springs to reduce the effects of recoil and muzzle rise while helping maintain stability between shots. Beretta rates the Kick-Off Plus system for up to 40% recoil reduction, providing greater comfort and control without compromising the Ultraleggero’s lightweight design.
The new 20-gauge configuration retains the same features and design that define the existing Ultraleggero Kick-Off, including a 3-inch chamber, Steelium Optima-Bore® HP barrels and Extralight® recoil pad. The 3-inch chamber is designed to accommodate a broad range of hunting loads, including lead, steel and high-performance steel shot.
“The Ultraleggero Kick-Off was designed for hunters who want to cover ground with a shotgun that feels effortless in the field,” said Caleb McMillen, Sr. Product Manager for Long Guns for Beretta USA. “Adding a 20-gauge option gives upland hunters another way to experience the balance, lightweight handling and recoil management that make the Ultraleggero unique.”
With its combination of lightweight construction, fast handling and recoil-reducing technology, the Ultraleggero Kick-Off 20 gauge is built for hunters who value mobility and performance from the first step into the field to the last bird of the day. The Beretta Ultraleggero Kick-Off 20 gauge is now available at select Beretta authorized dealers nationwide with an MSRP of $3,749.
