Beretta A300 Ultima KO 28 Max-7 12 Gauge – Powerful Camo Waterfowl Shotgun

Description

The Beretta A300 Ultima KO 28 Max-7 is Beretta’s value-priced gas gun built for duck blinds and goose pits. It combines the A300 Ultima action with Beretta’s Kick-Off recoil reduction and full Realtree Max-7 camo, a pattern designed for waterfowl hunters. This listing is Beretta model J32TS18, UPC 082442967479 (Sports South item 156486).

Beretta A300 Ultima KO 28 Max-7 Overview

The A300 Ultima was designed to bring Beretta reliability to hunters who do not want to spend A400 money. Its gas system handles everything from light 2-3/4 inch target loads to heavy 3-inch steel, and the action is simple to clean. This KO version adds the Kick-Off recoil reduction stock, a meaningful upgrade when shooting heavy waterfowl loads all morning.

Built as a Waterfowl Shotgun

Realtree Max-7 covers the stock, forend, barrel and receiver, and its marsh-grass and cattail elements blend with blinds and shorelines. A 28-inch barrel gives a smooth swing on passing ducks and geese, and the stepped vent rib with mid bead and fiber optic front sight helps you stay on target in low morning light. The overmolded stock surfaces provide grip with wet gloves.

Kick-Off Stock and Recoil Control

The Kick-Off stock uses hydraulic dampers in the buttstock that Beretta credits with significantly reducing felt recoil, and the Micro-Core recoil pad adds extra comfort. Combined with the gas operated 12 gauge action, the gun shoots noticeably softer than an inertia or pump shotgun with the same loads.

Before You Buy the Beretta A300 Ultima KO 28 Max-7

Gas guns need regular cleaning, especially after shooting dirty steel loads in wet conditions. The A300 is lighter on features than the A400 Xtreme, with no Blink system, but it is a proven, dependable field gun. A Kick-Off stock adds a little length and weight. For ducks and geese, use non-toxic shot and install the plug to limit capacity to three shells.

Care in the Blind

After each hunt, wipe the gun down, dry it thoroughly, and clean the gas piston and cylinder before storing. A light coat of oil on the exterior metal helps protect against corrosion from marsh water. Store it in a well-ventilated case rather than a sealed one so moisture does not get trapped against the camo finish.

Choosing Loads and Chokes

For ducks over decoys, a modified or improved cylinder choke with 3-inch steel #2 or #3 shot is a reliable starting point. For geese, step up to BB or tungsten-blend loads and a tighter choke. Always pattern your gun with the exact load you plan to hunt with, because two loads of the same shot size can pattern very differently. Shotgun shells for waterfowl are more expensive than upland loads, so a few boxes of practice on clays before the season will pay off in cleaner kills and fewer cripples.

Who It Is For

Waterfowl hunters who want a soft-shooting, reliable Beretta at a fair price, and upland or turkey hunters who also want a camo gun for wet conditions, will find the Beretta A300 Ultima KO 28 Max-7 a strong choice.
