The left-hand sporting configuration is set up with cast-on and a left-handed palm swell to establish consistent alignment and repeatable mount. The B-Fast adjustable comb and MicroCore recoil pad make it straightforward to dial in fit, and the listed 14.75 length of pull supports a competition-oriented stance.
The 32 in Steelium barrels use the Optimabore HP profile with extended forcing cones and a monobloc construction. Ventilated side ribs and a 10×8 mm tapered rib with a matte anti-glare finish lead to a white front bead for a clear sight picture. Chambers are 3 in.
The Optimachoke HP extended, color-banded system is currently set with an Improved Modified tube in the top barrel and a Modified tube in the bottom barrel. Additional extended Skeet, Cylinder, and Improved Cylinder tubes are included, providing a broad range of sporting setups.
The break-action over/under uses a single-selective, adjustable trigger with a tang safety and barrel selector.
