Few names in the shotgun world scream quality like Beretta. For decades, Beretta has been seen as a premier manufacturer of reliable, high-quality shotguns. That doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon. Today, Beretta has added a new shotgun to its lineup for hunters. The Beretta AX800 Suprema.
Beretta AX800 Suprema Waterfowl Shotgun
The AX800 Suprema is a ground-up-engineered waterfowl shotgun. It elevates the company’s performance, durability, and ergonomics to a new level. Built for serious hunters, it demands maximum reliability in the blind, on the boat, and in the worst weather. The AX800 Suprema combines breakthrough gas-system technology, championship barrel engineering, and industry-leading recoil mitigation. This delivers more effective shots, faster follow-ups, and less maintenance between hunts.
“The AX800 Suprema is the most advanced waterfowl shotgun we’ve ever built,” said Caleb McMillen, Beretta USA Sr. Product Manager for Long Guns. “Every part of this platform was designed and engineered to give waterfowl hunters an advantage: harder-hitting and more consistent patterns, faster cycling, dramatically reduced felt recoil, cleaner operation, and a fit system that lets shooters fine-tune the gun to their body.”

Innovations
At the heart of this new shotgun are some unique innovations and features. The first is the B-LINK Pro Gas System. This is their fastest, cleanest, most reliable gas system to date. B-LINK Pro cycles everything from light target loads to heavy magnums with ease. It runs 36% faster and 46% cleaner than prior Beretta gas systems (including the A400 Xtreme Plus)—the result: softer felt recoil, more consistent cycling, and less time cleaning between hunts.
Next up are the Steelium Pro Barrels. This is barrel technology trusted by the world’s best clay shooters. It’s now built for the blind. Proven in their world-champion DT11, the shotgun supports 14 out of 15 podium finishes at the 2024 Olympics. Steelium Pro features an extended 17.7″ (450mm) forcing cone to deliver tighter, more consistent patterns, greater down-range energy, and reliable performance, shot after shot.
Recoil Reduction
The AX800 Suprema has Kick-Off Pro Recoil Reduction. It is built to handle the heaviest waterfowl loads and cuts felt recoil by up to 70%. The high-tech polymer receiver is rugged, weatherproof, and easy to clean. The sleek, high-tech polymer receiver features a modular design and an integrated optic mount, keeping you ready for any setup.
The gun is fully configurable to fit each shooter out of the box. It includes an interchangeable pistol grip, adjustable comb, adjustable length of pull, cast/drop adjustments, and a weather-resistant recoil pad. Designed for intuitive handling in tight, blind, and boat environments. It features a flat trigger with a crisp break and fast reset. Lastly, it has user-first ergonomics, including an oversized loading port with pro-lifter, bolt handle, bolt release, and enlarged trigger guard. This ensures reliable operation in wet, cold, or gloved conditions.
