- Chrome-plated chamber resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning after hard days afield
- Inflex II recoil pad directs movement down and away to maintain a consistent cheek weld through the shot

- The Grade III/IV walnut stock with satin finish and gold game scene engraving make this a gun worth carrying proudly through every season and displaying off-season
