ETHOS Upland A.I. Semi-Auto Shotguns
The Benelli ETHOS Upland series just got even better with the addition of BE.S.T. barrels and the Advanced Impact barrel system. Designed for upland hunters, these shotguns deliver unmatched durability and performance. BE.S.T. barrels and components come with a 25-year warranty against corrosion, while the Advanced Impact system enhances energy, velocity, and shot patterns for more effective hits on game. Featuring Benelli's Inertia Driven® System for reliable cycling of everything from light trap loads to magnum goose shells, these shotguns are built for versatility. Upgraded with an enlarged bolt handle and bolt-release lever, the ETHOS sets the standard for upland shooting excellence.
Up To 50% More Penetration On Target
– More energy translates to more knock-down power and dusted clays
Improved Pellet Density
– A.I. barrels produce a more uniform and tighter shot string
The Crio® System combines a barrel frozen to -300° F with a specially designed longer choke tube that is also cryogenically treated. The result is a denser, more uniform shot pattern that puts more pellets on target.
The Inertia Driven® System never needs adjusting and will cycle anything from light field loads to 3½" magnums with consistent reliability year after year. In fact, there are Inertia Driven® Benelli shotguns that have fired more than 500,000 rounds, still in the field and functioning perfectly.
BE.S.T. (Benelli Surface Treatment) coating provides corrosion and abrasion resistance that is superior to any other firearm finish on the market.
