Engineered with precision and tailored for the avid hunter, the ELEMENT II boasts an array of features designed to elevate your shooting experience. It features oversized controls including a larger slammer button, charging handle, and safety to ensure seamless operation in less-than-ideal conditions.

Crafted with the waterfowler and upland hunter in mind, the Element II embodies reliability and performance. Its oversized safety, charging handle, and slammer button ensure easy operation even in the most demanding situations. The receiver has a competition cut for easier loading.
The flat ribbed barrel features an LPA bead for quick target acquisition, giving you the edge in low-light conditions. The ELEMENT II utilizes the popular Crio® Plus choke system and comes with 3 chokes, choke wrench, and a convenient choke tube carrying case (chokes included improved cylinder, modified, full). *Upland and Synthetic have flush chokes and the Waterfowler and Tungsten models have extended chokes.
Adjustable stock shims are included so shooters can adjust cast for a tailored fit to the gun. The stock has textured touch points for a non-slip grip and a soft cheekpiece for comfort while shooting. On the inside of the stock, the recoil spring nut now has a tool-less disassembly for easy maintenance of the inertia recoiling spring.

12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells. — Craig Boddington
