January 23, 2023

January 2023, Accokeek, MD — A backbone of Benelli’s upland and clay target shotgun line, the Montefeltro has, for years, been a favorite of discerning shotgun aficionados. This year, Benelli's sleek, classically styled shotgun is available in eight different configurations to ensure all shooters, regardless of size, body type, or experience level, can dominate in the field and on the clay range.

New for 2023, the Montefeltro is now upgraded with Benelli’s newest Inertia-Driven™ System bolt for outstanding performance and exceptional reliability. A redesigned bolt handle improves bolt manipulation, even when wearing gloves. Its improved ergonomics complement the handsome walnut stock, pairing perfectly with the deep gloss-blue finish on the sleek receiver and barrel. The new 2-piece shell latch makes loading the shotgun a faster and easier task.

The Montefeltro is offered in 12- and 20-gauge chambers with vent-ribbed barrel lengths of 24-, 26-, and 28-inches, as well as 12- (26-inch barrel) and 20-gauge (24-inch barrel) Compact models. All Montefeltro models come with a Micro Cell Recoil Pad to reduce felt recoil, a shim kit for drop and cast adjustment, and IC, M, and F Crio®chokes.

Be ready to dominate the skies and shatter clays with this updated 4+1 capacity semi-automatic shotgun.
