Built to be a do-all workhorse shotgun, the Weatherby Element Synthetic Tungsten builds on a tried-and-true inertia semi-auto and seals its metalwork under a ceramic shell to create protection from the elements. Between the black polymer stock and the tungsten Cerakote barrel and action, this two-tone shotgun is at home chasing pheasants in the snow, laying in wait for waterfowl or breaking clays in the sun. The Element Synthetic Tungsten is shipped with a set of interchangeable chokes and is adjustable for fit with the included stock shim set. Between the incredibly hardy external finish and the reliable and time-proven inertia operating system, this Element is built to perform for years to come.

Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 20-gauge follows the 12-gauge as America's second-most popular shotgun gauge. And, with modern shotshells, continues to gain ground. The 20-gauge has a bore diameter of .615-inch, with modern shells in either 2 3/4 "standard" or 3-inch "magnum" length. Most modern shotguns are chambered to handle both. Payloads vary from light-recoiling 5/8-ounce loads all the way to heavy turkey loads carrying 1 5/16 ounces of shot. Standard 2 3/4" loads for targets and upland birds are normally 7/8 or one ounce. At its very best the 20-gauge does not have the capability of a 12-gauge...but with modern shot, wad columns, and chokes it doesn't give up much, and it can be built into a much lighter shotgun developing less recoil. Virtually all manufacturers offer 20-gauge guns, and they are available in all action types and for virtually all shotgunning sports. The 20-gauge joins the 12, 28, and .410 as one of four events in skeet competition, and is becoming increasingly popular for sporting clays. — Craig Boddington
