Weatherby Introduces their New Element Turkey Hunting Shotgun
Luke Cuenco 03.25.22
Spring is usually the time to crack open that frozen-shut gun cabinet and give your favorite turkey shotgun a nice rubdown before the start of the season. Or, alternatively, you can just buy a new one and enjoy everything it has to offer without cleaning it! Weatherby is proud to announce their latest semi-auto shotgun offering specifically designed to offer turkey hunters a solid and affordable platform to hunt with this spring season. The new Weatherby Element Turkey is a 12 or 20-gauge semi-auto shotgun that is built on the proven and reliable Element series of shotguns but now also features several improvements and an appropriately fancy Mossy Oak Bottomland finish to make one of 2022’s latest Turkey Hunting Shotgun options.
Weatherby Introduces their New Element Turkey Hunting Shotgun
The New Weatherby Element Turkey shotguns will be brought to market with an MSRP of $799 making them one of the more affordable dedicated Turkey guns on the market. The 22″ barrel and extended full choke should give Turkey hunters a great out-of-the-box advantage in terms of range and accuracy when it comes to some of the more dicey shots you can take with a turkey shotgun. The Element Turkey is available in 12 or 20 gauge, is chambered for up to 3″ shells, and is available at dealers now.
“The Element Turkey’s factory-equipped choke is an extended Full that is fluted for tool-free removal and installation, while three flush chokes and a choke tube wrench are also included (constrictions Improved Cylinder, Modified and Full). Built to run modern 2 3⁄4” and 3” magnum loads, the Element has front and rear sling studs to enable the quick addition of a sling. A light-gathering fiber optic front sight sits atop its serrated and ventilated rib and rubberized grip panels lend traction in wet conditions. To enable the Element to point naturally for the wide variety of shooters, a full set of shims give the ability to tune the stock’s cast and drop.”
