Advanced Features
The 690 Game features an adjustable trigger blade, allowing shooters to customise pull length without gunsmith intervention. The automatic safety engages on opening, and the action incorporates Beretta's Optima-Choke HP system for versatile choke selection. The Steelium Pro barrels are cold hammer-forged, delivering consistent patterns and enhanced durability over sustained use in the field.
User Experience
Owners consistently report excellent pointability and a natural swing through, attributes well-suited to driven game days. The stock dimensions offer a traditional British-style fit, and the smooth action cycles reliably across a broad range of cartridge loads. Shooters note reduced fatigue during extended days, making this premium shotgun a practical choice for serious game shooting.
Aesthetics and Build Quality
The 690 Game is finished with a hand-oiled walnut stock, displaying clean grain and a subdued lustre appropriate for the field. The receiver carries fine floral scroll engraving on a case-hardened-effect finish. Build quality is consistent with Beretta's Italian manufacturing standards, and the overall presentation reflects the craftsmanship expected of a premium game gun at this price point.
