The Beretta 690 Field III comes equipped with Steelium barrels and with the OptimaChoke HP system. From the 3″ chamber on forward, the Steelium proprietary steel alloy gives the barrels a combination of lightness and imperviousness to deformation under firing; for the hunter, this means a shotgun that comes effortlessly to the shoulder while offering enviable pattern consistency. Add to this the OptimaChoke HP system, and in the Beretta 690 Field III you get a hunting shotgun that will give you low recoil, extreme durability with any kind of loads (2 3/4″ or 3″) and the kind of accuracy that will always make you successful in the field or at the range.
