Who This Is For
The Stevens 555 Enhanced is ideal for upland bird hunters, dove and quail enthusiasts, and new-to-intermediate sporting clays shooters who want a reliable, well-appointed over/under without stepping into the premium price tier. Its slim 20-gauge frame and 26-inch barrels make it an excellent choice for younger shooters or anyone who prefers a lighter, faster-swinging gun in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
What choke tubes are included with the Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge?
The Stevens 555 Enhanced comes with 5 interchangeable choke tubes, typically including Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Cylinder. This versatile selection covers everything from tight long-range pheasant shots to open patterns for close-flushing quail or sporting clays presentations.
Is the Stevens 555 Enhanced suitable for new or youth shotgun shooters?
Yes. The 20-gauge chambering produces noticeably less recoil than a 12-gauge, and the scaled-down aluminum receiver keeps overall weight low — typically around 6 pounds. The 26-inch barrel provides a natural, quick-swinging feel that suits smaller-framed or newer shooters very well, making it a popular first over/under.
Can the Stevens 555 Enhanced handle steel shot or non-toxic loads?
The Stevens 555 Enhanced is rated for standard lead and non-toxic shot loads, but you should always use an Improved Cylinder or more open choke tube when shooting steel shot — never use Full choke with steel. Consult the owner's manual and verify load compatibility before using steel or other non-toxic alternatives in the field.
