Pictured: Benelli's Ethos Field 28 Gauge

Welcome to Reeds Shotgun Showcase 2017! Let the gun reviews begin with a pair of stylish, high-performance Benellis -- the Ethos Field 28 Gauge and PS Upland Ultralight 20 Gauge.

ETHOS 28 GAUGE

The engraved nickel-plated receiver and beautiful walnut stock of the new Benelli Ethos 28 gauge are immediately eye-catching, but shooters at Hunters Pointe also raved about the gun’s lightweight design (5.3 pounds), easy-to-use bolt release, and virtually non-existent recoil. Standard features on the Ethos include interchangeable fiber optic sights, 5 choke-tubes (C, IC, M, IM, F) and a redesigned inertia-driven action that cycles effortlessly through a day’s worth of shells.

“The Ethos is stylish and performs flawlessly,” said PF CEO Howard Vincent. “It’s a gun you’d be proud to carry in the field.”

PS UPLAND ULTRALIGHT 20 GAUGE

With the Benelli Performance Shop Upland Ultralight 20 gauge, shooters found a gun loaded with features typically associated with after-market upgrades. The bells and whistles come with a price — $2799 — but this gun received some of the highest ratings of the day. The Ultralight’s satin-walnut stock and forend add eye-appeal, while the Cerakote-coated barrel and receiver holds moisture at bay. A ported barrel, oversized bolt and bolt release (great for cold fingers) and high performance choke tubes from Rob Roberts round out the special features.
