Beretta Ultralight O/U Experience?

. · September 18, 2006, 12:23 PM

SWMBO and I are looking at getting a pair of the Ultralights, but don't have any feedback on how they hold up in the field or for extensive shooting (e.g. clays & skeet). If you've any experience with this gun, I'd appreciate your sharing it here.
Thanx,

How light is the ultralight ? My Beretta is 7 1/4 lbs and I find it's nice for clays [not too much recoil] and field use light enough for convenient hunting.They made one with an aluminum receiver which was lighter by a pound or two .That would be nice for grouse [carry a lot fire little] but I think it might be too light for comfortable target shooting even with target loads .Best thing would be to find one to try.
