There is something special about a 28 gauge over/under, and the Stevens 555 E gets the formula right. Savage built this one around a lightweight aluminum receiver that is scaled to the gauge, not just a 12 gauge frame with skinny barrels stuffed in it. A steel insert reinforces the breech, so you get the strength where it matters without the extra heft. The result is a gun that tips the scales around 5.85 pounds and comes up to the shoulder like it wants to be there. For long walks after quail, grouse, or doves, that weight savings is the whole ballgame.
The E stands for Enhanced, and it earns the name. The silver receiver wears laser-engraved filigree scrollwork, and the oil-finished Turkish walnut stock and fore-end give it the look of a gun that costs a good bit more. Beyond the cosmetics, the 555 E steps up to automatic ejectors that kick spent hulls clear when you break the action, which keeps reloads quick when the birds are moving. The single selective mechanical trigger lets you pick which barrel fires first, and because it is mechanical rather than inertia-driven, the second barrel goes off even with light target loads. A tang-mounted safety sits right where your thumb expects it.
The 26-inch chrome-lined carbon steel barrels carry a vent rib and brass bead up top, and the 2-3/4 inch chambers handle the full range of 28 gauge loads. Five interchangeable choke tubes come in the box, Cylinder through Full, so you can pattern tight for late-season birds or open things up for skeet and close flushes. The 28 gauge itself is easy on the shoulder and a joy to shoot, which makes this a smart pick for newer wing shooters, smaller-framed hunters, or anyone who has decided that lugging a heavy 12 gauge through the uplands is overrated. Classic looks, light weight, and features borrowed from guns twice the price. Hard combination to beat.
The E model is the Enhanced version. It upgrades to automatic ejectors that toss spent hulls out when you open the action, while the standard 555 uses manual extractors. You also get a laser-engraved silver receiver and nicer oil-finished walnut, so it looks and functions a step above the base gun.
Yes, five interchangeable choke tubes ship with the gun: Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and Full. That covers everything from close-flushing birds and skeet out to longer passing shots without buying anything extra.
It comes in right around 5.85 pounds thanks to the aluminum receiver that is scaled specifically to the 28 gauge frame. That makes it a natural fit for upland hunting where you carry the gun far more than you shoot it. It swings quick on flushing birds and will not wear out your arms by the end of the day.
Yes. The 555 E uses a mechanical trigger rather than an inertia-based design, so the second barrel does not depend on recoil from the first shot to reset. That means reliable second shots even with soft-shooting target loads, which is a real plus in a light 28 gauge.
