Beretta A400 Xplor Light Xplor 2010 product brochure - Page 2

A KICK-OFF® technology gradually dissipated recoil energy through two hydraulic oil dampers built into the stock, significantly reducing the felt recoil by 60%. At the same time, vibration and muzzle rise are decreased, while durability, and handling are increased. B Laboratory tests have shown two distinct peaks in recoil.The explosion of the ammunition is the first; the impact of the bolt against the receiver is the second. Kick-Off 3 is a third hydraulic damper that cushions this stress on the mechanical components and further reduces recoil by an additional 10% for a total recoil reduction of 70%. C Micro-Core is an innovative recoil pad developed by Beretta with the benefit of decades of real-world experience.The techno-polymer material is softer and lighter than rubber and expands its surface area on the shoulder, giving the Xplor secure and precise support. D Blink is the new "engine" of the Xplor, and it is 36% faster than any other shotgun.Within the gas system, an innovative piston with an elastic scraper functions as a gasket, keeping the gun cleaner and making the Xplor the most reliable shotgun available. E Beretta makes the best barrels in the world. Starting with proprietary tri-alloy steel (Ni. Cr. Mo.), the metal goes through a unique manufacturing process. Deep hole drilling, cold-hammer forging, and vacuum distension create the very best ballistic performance available. F Optima-Bore HP geometry was conceived to offer the best ballistic performance available, even with steel shot.The shot pattern remains perfectly uniform whatever the shell size, or load. OptimaBore HP choke tubes further enhance the effect.
