Frequently Asked Questions

What types of ammunition does the Beretta A400 Xplor Action cycle reliably?

The A400 Xplor Action's self-regulating gas system is designed to cycle a wide range of 12-gauge loads — from light 1-ounce target loads up to heavy 3-inch magnum hunting shells — without any manual adjustment. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for shooters who transition between clay sports and field hunting throughout the season.

Is this shotgun a good fit for new or recoil-sensitive shooters?

Yes. The A400 platform is widely praised for its low-recoil characteristics, thanks to the Beretta Blink gas system and the included Kick-Off recoil dampening mechanism built into the stock. Combined with the shotgun's balanced weight distribution, it is one of the more comfortable 12-gauge semi-automatics to shoot over long sessions — making it a great option for younger, smaller-framed, or recoil-sensitive shooters.

Does this A400 come with multiple choke tubes, and what choke system does it use?

Yes, the Beretta A400 Xplor Action ships with five flush-mount Optimachoke HP (OCHP) choke tubes: Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and Full. These are Beretta's proprietary choke system, though many aftermarket choke manufacturers produce compatible options. Always verify compatibility before purchasing third-party chokes.
