Who This Is For
The A400 Xtreme Ko 20/28 Marsh is designed for dedicated waterfowl hunters who spend long days in the blind, facing cold temperatures, driving rain, and demanding shot volumes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Beretta A400 Xtreme Ko compatible with steel and non-toxic shot loads?
Yes. The A400 Xtreme Ko is specifically designed for waterfowl hunting and is fully rated for steel, bismuth, and other non-toxic heavyweight loads. The included OCHP extended choke tubes are engineered for use with steel shot, and the Steelium Plus barrel provides consistent patterning across a wide range of non-toxic ammunition.
What makes the Blink gas-operated system better for high-volume shooting?
Beretta's Blink system cycles at an exceptionally fast rate — reportedly three times faster than a human can pull the trigger — and is tuned to handle everything from light target loads to heavy 3-inch magnum waterfowl shells without manual adjustment. This self-regulating system reduces felt recoil and keeps the shotgun cycling reliably even when fouled from a long day in the field.
How does the soft comb stock help reduce recoil during extended shooting sessions?
The soft comb insert on the A400 Xtreme Plus stock is designed to absorb the upward snap of recoil before it reaches your cheekbone, complementing the gas-operated action's recoil-reducing characteristics. This is especially beneficial during high-volume waterfowl hunts where cumulative recoil fatigue can affect accuracy and shooter comfort over the course of a morning in the blind.
