Description
There is a reason you see so many A400 Xtreme Plus shotguns in duck blinds. This 30 inch Realtree Max-7 model runs Beretta's Blink gas system, which cycles noticeably faster than most autoloaders and digests everything from 2.75 inch field loads up to full-house 3.5 inch magnums without complaint. The gas action is self-cleaning by design, so it keeps running through long seasons where cleaning sessions tend to get skipped.
Steelium Plus Barrel Built for Real Patterns
The heart of this gun is the 30 inch Steelium Plus barrel with lengthened forcing cones, a design Beretta borrowed from its competition guns to tighten patterns and take a real bite out of felt recoil. Up top you get a stepped rib with an integral steel mid-bead and a fiber optic front, giving you a clean, consistent sight picture whether you are swinging on crossing teal or centering a turkey head. The Optima-Choke HP system comes with five extended Black Edition chokes, so you are covered from decoying birds to long passing shots right out of the box.
Kick-Off Comfort on the A400 Xtreme Plus
Recoil is where this gun separates itself. The Kick-Off hydraulic system in the stock works together with the MicroCore pad and soft comb to soak up the punishment of heavy waterfowl loads, and it makes a full day of high-volume shooting a lot more pleasant. A shim kit lets you adjust drop and cast so the gun fits you instead of the other way around.
Ready for the Worst Days of the Season
Beretta dressed this one for bad weather. The Realtree Max-7 camo covers the synthetic stock and metalwork, Aqua Tech Shield treatment fights off rain and salt spray, and the oversized charging handle, enlarged bolt release, and beveled loading port are all built to work with cold, gloved hands. If you hunt when the weather turns ugly, this gun was designed with you in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the A400 Xtreme Plus cycle light target loads or does it need heavy shells?
The Blink gas system on this gun is known for being one of the most forgiving on the market. It reliably cycles everything from standard 2.75 inch loads up to 3.5 inch magnums, so you can practice on clays with light shells and hunt with heavy waterfowl loads out of the same gun.
How much does the Kick-Off system really help with recoil?
Quite a bit. The Kick-Off uses hydraulic dampeners in the stock alongside the MicroCore recoil pad and soft comb, and combined with the gas action it makes 3.5 inch magnums feel closer to standard loads. It is one of the biggest reasons hunters pick this gun for high-volume days in the blind.
Is the Beretta A400 Xtreme Plus good for anything besides waterfowl?
Absolutely. The Realtree Max-7 finish and weather-resistant build make it a natural for ducks and geese, but the 30 inch barrel and five included chokes make it just as capable for turkey, dove, and even clay games. The step rib with mid-bead and fiber optic front carries over from Beretta's competition guns.
Can I adjust the fit of the stock on this shotgun?
Yes, the A400 Xtreme Plus ships with a shim kit that lets you adjust drop and cast at the stock. That means you can fine-tune how the gun mounts and where it shoots relative to your point of aim, which is a big deal for consistent wing shooting.
