Stevens 301 Turkey Shotgun
The Stevens 301 represents a return to fundamentals in shotgun design. This is a single-shot, break-action shotgun built on the principle that simplicity and reliability trump complexity every time.
Design and Function
The break-action mechanism is straightforward and proven. You open the action, insert a round, close it, and fire. There are no moving parts to wear, no springs to weaken, and no complications. This is the kind of shotgun that will function flawlessly in any weather condition.
Barrel and Performance
The 26-inch barrel is specifically optimized for heavyweight TSS (tungsten super shot) turkey loads. Modern TSS ammunition has transformed turkey hunting, delivering denser patterns and superior energy retention at distance compared to traditional lead shot. This barrel takes full advantage of that technology.
Optics Ready
A removable one-piece rail system allows you to mount your choice of optic or red dot sight. This is a significant advantage for turkey hunting, where precision aiming matters. The rail is easily removed if you prefer traditional sighting methods.
