"I broke targets that I had no right to break with a 28-gauge with light loads," says American Rifleman's Editor-in-Chief Mark Keefe, "but I did."

This nimble, attractive 28-gauge gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun so impressed the editors of American Rifleman, they awarded the Weatherby SA-08 their Golden Bullseye Award for Shotgun of the Year. With the minimal recoil of a 28-gauge wed to the supreme reliability and pointability for which Weatherby is deservedly famous, this lightweight scattergun is perfect for upland bird hunters and clay-games enthusiasts...as well as first-time shotgun owners.
