For shooters who demand the balance and handling of a classic over/under with modern weight savings, the newest light-receiver designs set a new benchmark for field and competitive use. Mobility, swing speed, and follow-up shot control become decisive advantages when the gun cuts fatigue over a long day on the field or at the clays range.

BERETTA 690 ULTRALEGGERO DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY to produce the lightest steel receiver shotgun on the market, the Ultraleggero delivers the same strength and balance characteristic of Beretta shotguns with a lighter steel receiver, techno-polymer receiver inserts, Extralight(R) recoil pad, and Steelium Optima-Bore(R) HP barrels that ensure superior quality performance and consistent shot patterns.

Lightweight engineering for real-world performance

The Ultraleggero’s lighter steel receiver is the headline feature: it trims weight without compromising the steel backbone that gives Beretta shotguns their signature balance. Techno-polymer receiver inserts reduce mass and help manage vibration, while the Extralight(R) recoil pad softens felt recoil—important for extended shooting sessions and faster target reacquisition.

Barrel system and shot consistency

Steelium Optima-Bore(R) HP barrels are tuned for uniform pellet patterns and reliable shot placement. For tactical shooters and sportsmen who prioritize predictable patterns, this barrel treatment provides tighter groups across varied loads and distances.

Price-conscious buyers should note the Ultraleggero is positioned as a premium lightweight option at $2911.99 — reflecting its advanced materials and manufacturing. If you want to review the full specs or confirm current stock, View product details and pricing.
