There's a reason the 20 gauge keeps winning people over, and the Retay ACE-R makes a strong case all on its own. At the heart of this gun is Retay's patented Inertia Plus bolt, which uses an internal torsion spring to rotate the bolt head fully into battery and keep it there. That design takes care of the classic inertia gun headache, the dreaded click when a bolt gets bumped out of battery in a blind or on a hard truck ride. It also lets you close the bolt slowly and quietly, which anyone who hunts wary birds will appreciate.
The R in ACE-R refers to the humpback receiver profile, which gives you a longer, flatter sighting plane compared to the standard slope-back ACE. The receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory, so adding a red dot for turkey season is a simple job. Retay also built this platform to accept Benelli Crio Plus pattern chokes and extended magazine tubes, which opens up a huge aftermarket without hunting down proprietary parts. The 28 inch deep-bore drilled barrel wears a vent rib and a TruGlo fiber optic front bead, and the factory-lengthened forcing cone helps patterns stay smooth and even.
Recoil in a 20 gauge is already mild, but the AIRY pad takes it a step further. Inspired by athletic shoe cushioning, it uses an internal air pocket to soak up and spread out recoil energy, reducing felt kick by up to 30 percent. Combine that with a trim black synthetic stock, a 14.5 inch length of pull, and an included shim kit for adjusting cast and drop, and you get a gun you can fit to your build and shoot all afternoon.
The reversible safety button swaps easily for left-handed use, and the push-button removable trigger group drops out in seconds for cleaning, no tools needed. With a 3 inch chamber, 3+1 capacity, and cycling that handles light target loads through heavy waterfowl shells, this is one 20 gauge that can pull duty on doves, ducks, upland birds, and weekend clays without complaint. Retay backs it with a limited lifetime warranty.
Yes, that's one of the strong suits of Retay's Inertia Plus system. The rotating bolt design is built to run everything from light 20 gauge target loads up through heavy 3 inch waterfowl shells. If you plan to shoot mostly featherweight promo loads, give the gun a short break-in period like you would with any new inertia semi-auto.
Both guns share the same internals, operating system, and features. The difference is the receiver profile: the standard ACE uses a traditional slope-back receiver while the ACE-R has a slight humpback shape, which gives you a longer sighting plane, a look similar to classic humpback autoloaders. It comes down to which style points more naturally for you.
You can. The receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory, so mounting a base for a red dot is straightforward. That makes this a solid pick if you want to run it as a turkey gun in addition to bird and clay duty. It also wears a TruGlo fiber optic front bead for regular wingshooting.
The ACE-R ships with a five-piece choke set covering Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and Full, plus a wrench. The threading follows the Benelli Crio Plus pattern, so aftermarket options are plentiful if you want a dedicated turkey or long-range waterfowl choke down the road.
