Description

Weatherby built the Element 2 Tungsten for hunters who don't get to pick the weather. The receiver and 28 inch vent rib barrel are sealed under Tungsten Cerakote, a matte grey ceramic coating that stands up to rain, mud, and the general abuse a field gun takes. Underneath that finish is Weatherby's inertia recoil system, a simple design with very few moving parts that has been tuned to cycle everything from lighter field loads to heavy 3 inch magnums. Fewer parts means less to clean, and the recoil spring now disassembles without tools, so end-of-season maintenance takes minutes instead of an afternoon.

Why the Element 2 Works With Gloves On

Anyone who has fumbled with a tiny bolt release in freezing weather will appreciate what Weatherby did here. The slammer button, charging handle, and safety are all oversized, so you can run the gun with cold fingers or heavy gloves without thinking about it. The receiver also has a competition cut for faster, easier loading, and an LPA fiber optic front bead sits on the flat rib to pull your eye down the barrel quickly in dim morning light.

Fitting the Element 2 Tungsten to You

A shotgun that doesn't fit doesn't hit, and Weatherby includes stock shims so you can adjust cast and drop until the gun points where you look. The black synthetic stock has textured grip panels and a soft cheekpiece, and at 6.7 pounds the 20 gauge carries all day without wearing out your shoulder. Owners consistently mention how light this gun feels and how mild the recoil is, even with 3 inch shells.

Chokes and Extras in the Box

This Tungsten model ships with three extended Crio Plus chokes in improved cylinder, modified, and full, plus a choke wrench and a carrying case to keep them organized. That thread pattern is one of the most common out there, so aftermarket options are plentiful if you want a dedicated turkey or waterfowl tube down the road. From dove fields to flooded timber, this is a do-it-all 20 gauge that's ready to work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Element 2 Tungsten cycle light target loads?

Weatherby tuned the spring rates on the Element 2 to run a wide range of loads, from lighter small game shells up to heavy 3 inch magnums. Like most inertia guns, it tends to be happiest with heavier loads until it breaks in, so run a few boxes of standard field loads through it first. After a proper break-in period, most owners report reliable cycling across the board.

What choke threads does the Weatherby Element 2 use?

It uses the Crio Plus choke thread pattern, one of the most widely supported systems on the market. The Tungsten model comes with extended improved cylinder, modified, and full tubes, plus a wrench and carrying case. Finding aftermarket turkey, waterfowl, or long range chokes is easy since so many companies make Crio Plus tubes.

Can I adjust the fit of the stock on the Element 2?

Yes, the gun ships with a shim kit that lets you adjust the cast and drop of the black synthetic stock so it points naturally for your build. The stock also has textured grip panels and a soft cheekpiece for comfort. It's a quick job that makes a noticeable difference in how consistently you mount the gun.

How does the inertia action compare to a gas gun for hunting?

Inertia actions like the one in the Element 2 run cleaner because they don't vent powder gases into the receiver, which means less scrubbing after a long weekend of shooting. They also have fewer parts to wear out or gum up in cold, wet conditions. The trade-off is slightly more felt recoil than a gas gun, but in a soft-shooting 20 gauge like this one it's a non-issue for most people.
