With its sleek design, solid performance, and affordable price point, this shotgun stands out as an excellent choice for both field hunting and sport shooting. Featuring a semi-automatic action, Turkish walnut stock, and a 26" barrel, the Element Upland is designed to be versatile, lightweight, and reliable. In this review, we’ll dive into the key features, performance, and why this shotgun is well-suited for various shooting scenarios. Key Features of the Weatherby Element Upland 26" 20 Gauge Shotgun Semi-Automatic Action for Fast Follow-Up Shots The Weatherby Element Upland features a semi-automatic action, allowing quick follow-up shots with minimal recoil. This is particularly useful in both hunting and clay shooting where speed and accuracy are essential. The auto-loading system helps in reducing fatigue as the shotgun automatically cycles, providing you with more shots in less time. Lightweight and Easy to Handle Weighing just 6 lbs with a 26" barrel, the Element Upland is an excellent choice for those who need a shotgun that is easy to carry for extended periods. Whether you're trekking through the fields on a hunting trip or moving between stations at the range, this shotgun’s lightweight construction ensures that you can stay focused and comfortable. The aircraft-grade aluminum receiver further reduces weight while still providing the strength and durability needed for field use. Turkish Walnut Stock with a Classic Look One of the most visually striking features of the Weatherby Element Upland is its Turkish walnut stock. The wood offers both a classic appearance and excellent performance characteristics. The beautiful grain patterns and smooth finish provide a touch of elegance, while the ergonomic design of the stock allows for better comfort and control. For those who appreciate traditional wood stocks, this is a welcome feature. 26” Barrel for Maneuverability and Accuracy The 26" barrel strikes a perfect balance between accuracy and maneuverability. It’s long enough to provide a consistent shot pattern, especially when shooting clays or upland game, but not so long that it becomes cumbersome in tight spaces. Whether you're taking shots at flying targets or flush game, the 26" barrel ensures smooth handling and solid performance. 3" Chamber for Versatility The 3" chamber of the Weatherby Element Upland makes it compatible with a wide range of ammunition, including both standard and magnum loads. This allows the shotgun to be used effectively in a variety of shooting conditions, from trap and skeet shooting to hunting small game and waterfowl. The 3" chamber ensures that the gun is adaptable to different target types and shooting styles. 4+1 Round Capacity The Weatherby Element Upland features a 4+1 capacity, which means you can load up to 4 rounds in the magazine plus one in the chamber. This is a solid capacity for most upland hunting and clay shooting situations. While not as high as some larger shotguns, the 4+1 capacity is more than adequate for quick shots and fast follow-ups. Easy Disassembly for Cleaning A standout feature for many shooters is the easy disassembly of the shotgun. Field stripping the Element Upland is quick and simple, making cleaning and maintenance a hassle-free process. This is crucial for keeping the shotgun in top working condition, especially if you shoot frequently or hunt in harsh weather conditions. Accuracy and Handling The 26" barrel combined with the semi-automatic action provides great accuracy and smooth handling. Whether you’re targeting clays or hunting upland game, the Element Upland delivers shots with confidence. The low recoil makes it easy to stay on target for follow-up shots, and the ergonomically designed stock ensures that you can maintain good control, even after multiple shots. The point of impact is consistently reliable, and I’ve found it to be particularly effective in trap and skeet shooting. Recoil Management One of the most impressive aspects of the Weatherby Element Upland is its low recoil. The semi-automatic action reduces felt recoil by absorbing some of the energy from each shot, which means less impact on your shoulder and more comfort while shooting. The Turkish walnut stock also helps to absorb some of the recoil, providing a more comfortable shooting experience, especially when using magnum loads. Ease of Use and Comfort The Weatherby Element Upland is designed for easy use. The auto-loading system ensures quick follow-up shots, while the lightweight construction makes the shotgun comfortable to carry and shoot for extended periods. The inflex recoil pad provides extra cushioning, and the ergonomically shaped stock helps to keep the gun steady and balanced while you shoot. Overall, the Element Upland is a well-balanced shotgun that is easy to handle and shoots comfortably, making it perfect for long-range shooting sessions. Versatility for Different Shooters Whether you are a seasoned shooter or a beginner, the Weatherby Element Upland is incredibly versatile. Its 3" chamber allows for use with a variety of ammunition, and its semi-automatic action makes it a perfect choice for both competitive clay shooting and upland bird hunting. The low recoil and light weight make it especially well-suited for newer shooters or those who want a shotgun that can perform in a variety of scenarios.
