browning123 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) I purchased a Beretta A400 12g Xplor Light with 26" barrel secondhand some time ago, Due to health reasons I had not had a chance to try the gun untill yesterday evening on woodpigeon flighting. My bag was 19 pigeon with 23 shots, the Beretta handled brilliantly, using 32g No6 there was very little recoil and killed very well. All the pigeon were shot flying overhead above Fir trees. To say I'm pleased with the gun is an under-statement, Are there any other members who own a Beretta A400 Xplor light would like to post their views on the gun.

I also sold a Silver Pigeon 1 as i did not shoot well with it, this was after persevering for two years. I have owned a number of Beretta u/o's over the years and never shoot well with them.

gibspoon Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 I've got one, and I love it. Prefer it to my old AL391. Slightly surprised it doesn't seem to have a bigger following. Although, thinking about it, the Maxus and SX3 are a good bit cheaper and probably just as good. But they're NOT Berettas! I love the weight, or more accurately, lack of. Good quality finish and machining, apart from a little rough spot on the bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimfireboy Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 I've got an A400 Xtreme. Can't fault it. I also have an AL391 Teknys Gold. Also very good IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catweazle Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 My A400 just seems to work so well for me, wish the 682 Gold E did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
