For shooters who prioritize low recoil, quick follow-ups, and proven reliability in upland and high-volume field work, the right semi-automatic shotgun can transform a day in the field. This review breaks down the key features, handling, and value of a lightly used offering that pairs Benelli’s inertia system with modern recoil mitigation.

BERETTA Benelli Cordoba is a Benelli Cordoba semi-automatic shotgun chambered in 20 gauge, built for speed and performance and inspired by the high-volume bird shooting of South America. It features Benelli’s ultra-reliable Inertia-Driven(R) system, a ported barrel to reduce recoil, and the ComforTech(R) recoil reduction stock for faster follow-up shots. Shop this product

Key features and why they matter

The Inertia-Driven(R) system is the backbone of the BERETTA Benelli Cordoba’s reliability: simple, gas-free operation that cycles a wide range of loads and stays cleaner under sustained use. The ported barrel helps tame muzzle rise and felt recoil, while the ComforTech(R) stock further reduces impact to the shooter’s shoulder—useful in long days of clay or field work. The listing notes the shotgun is in Lightly Used condition and that it cycles smoothly and patterns well, emphasizing its soft-shooting character; the seller also highlights it as “incredibly soft-shooting for a semi-auto 12 gauge,” underscoring how mild the recoil feels despite its 20-gauge chambering.

Included accessories and setup

This offering includes an extra stock and forearm plus five chokes (IC, M, IM, and two Briley Spectrum LM), giving immediate patterning flexibility out of the box. That choke selection covers close to moderate ranges and provides options for dialing in pattern density for target or upland loads.

Handling and field use

The 20 gauge configuration balances payload and controllability: lighter ammunition for quicker swing and less fatigue, yet plenty effective for upland birds and small game. The combination of the Inertia-Driven(R) system and ComforTech(R) stock promotes fast follow-ups on flushes and fast-moving targets. At the listed price of $1,644.99, this lightly used example represents a tactical-minded option for shooters who want premium mechanics without paying retail for new.
