Anyone shoot a Weatherby Element? Thoughts?

My local shop has an Element 20ga on sale for $700. Have any of you used it? I have been debating between a Monte, Affinity, A400, or this for awhile and that price point is really attractive to me for a blued barrel wood shotgun.



Anyone with personal experience?

I have the 12 Gauge, synthetic model. Happy customer and it has killed a bunch of ducks and geese.

Is it a newer one? I am tempted to pull the trigger and save the $200 over the Monte

Weatherby has always been a great firearms maker. Sounds like a great deal. I have many rifles and they all perform flawlessly

I just head they got a lot of flack back in the 90s early 2000s for having sh$% shotguns. I have heard now they turned it around quite a bit but just wanted to see if most agree.
