Weatherby Element Waterfowler Semi-Auto Shotgun – 12 Gauge – 28

For Fathers day my two sons surprised me with this wonderful 12 gauge semi auto. We took it out and ran low brass target loads 1200 fps which ran flawlessly… she throws and tracks better than any Shotgun I’ve ever had… I am a fan of Weatherby shotguns as of today!!.. only critique is I need a magazine plug for the hunt and would be nice to have some Weatherby decals for my truck and such…

Had an SA-08 and upgraded to the Element. I am so glad I did. I love this gun and have no complaints. It kills ducks a lot better than the SA-08 did! lol! I would recommend this gun to anyone looking for a good quality, affordable semi-auto.

This is got to be one of the most beautiful guns I’ve had the opportunity to try yet ! Before anyone decides to go buy a Bonelli, Browning, Or any other inertia operated shotgun I encourage You to go to your gun shop and pick up to shoulder one of these beautiful Weatherby quality built shotguns at about half the price of any other shotgun today. I’ve done a lot of research before buying this gun I can find no bad reviews on the Internet or in the field.

I am on my second full season with this gun, and I must say, this gun has out-performed not only my expectations, but any other semi that I have been in the field with. It eats any ammo I put through it.. the lightest 2 3/4 trap loads, to magnum steel and bismuth loads. The light weight is not an issue as the action absorbs the recoil and follow up shots are a breeze. If you are looking for a quality affordable semi, this is the gun. You know it from the moment you shoulder it.

Awesome gun. This is my first inertia gun. Shot sporting clays with my son using all leftover low quality 2 3/4 shells from years of shooting. Gun never hung up. Well balanced and easy to the shoulder. Fiber optic sight really helps to pick out that spot just before the clay. I can’t wait for duck season.

I bought the 20 gauge for upland hunting. Its light enough to carry around for more than a few hours in the field. It handles well and I appreciate that I was able to adjust the drop on the stock to match my cheekbone. I’ve gone out 5 different times and have put 4 boxes of shells thru this shotgun. It cycles flawlessly and quickly using light loads (1200 fps) to heavy loads and has never hung up. I knock birds down and this shotgun gives me great confidence. I’m now looking at purchasing a Weatherby 12 gauge for waterfowl hunting. Well done Weatherby.

Excellent fit and finish, flawless action. I bought the Element 12 ga Waterfowler and a Carlson choke for turkey hunting after weeks of looking at options and couldn’t be happier!

I bought my Weatherby fall of 2019 because I wanted a 12 rather than the 20 I had for goose hunting. I really loved shooting my husband’s Browning A5, but I couldn’t bring myself to spend that much on a shotgun, I found the Weatherby Element (very well priced) and immediately liked the way it shouldered. So I pulled the trigger bought it and took it shooting and then hunting. My husband got his shotgun back when I bought mine and I absolutely love shooting this gun, and even prefer it to my husbands shotgun.

This is my second full season with the Element. When looking for a new shotgun price was a huge factor; the adjust ability and affordability of the Weatherby is unmatched. I have been using the gun for deer hunting, waterfowl locally in Michigan and in Kansas and the gun shoots at least one round of sporting clays per week for league shooting. It currently has 2600 rounds through it. No problems, no hiccups, it just shoots. Couldn’t be happier. I am so pleased with this purchase that I am going

Took it out sporting clays light 8 shot rounds cycled like a champ out the box . Can't wait to get it in the marsh.

This gun is a great gun. Really light and can swing very good. I love it and would recommend it to anyone. I’ve shot about 100 rounds right out the box the same day I took it home and it cycles great. No malfunction at all. Awesome gun!!

love this gun!! shoots everytime 2 3/4 3 inch doesnt matter this thing just shoots been a great new duck gun this season

Very easy to shot, looks great and stands up to the big name/price shotguns. Easy to take down and clean. Very user friendly and does not beat you up on the recoil. Love my Element.

Harvested limit of ducks on first time out with it. Great gun. Smooth operation and lightweight. Will have it for years to come.

I absolutely love this shotgun! I did a lot of research and this one was my top choice from extensive research and it did not disappoint. Shoots great, easy to clean and looks awesome. Great gun for under $800!

Great gun, shoots nice and has taken a bunch of geese and ducks in the first month of owning it. Very light and easy to swing on ducks. One of my favorite shotguns already

Great gun, reliable. Haven’t tried any low muzzle velocity rounds, but it cycles perfectly on everything I’ve shot so far.

Great gun overall. Hunted a couple of days with it and it is light and has a great swing. Overall a superb value.

Although I have only had it a short time I really like the gun. I have shot 3 rounds of sporting clays, about 300 shots, and it works perfectly. I have tested loading and shooting 4 shells at a time and no problem. Also I like the light weight which is one of the main reasons I purchased it. Easy to carry around.

I love this gun! A true workhorse. My second Weatherby 12ga. (I also have a 92), and the quality and craftsmanship is unmatched at this price.
