The Stevens 555 410 Gauge over/under shotgun delivers reliable performance for small game hunting and sporting clays with its 26-inch barrel configuration. This break-action design combines traditional craftsmanship with modern manufacturing precision. The 3-inch chamber capability handles both standard and magnum loads effectively.
What Makes This Different
The Stevens 555 features a single selective trigger system that allows shooters to choose which barrel fires first, unlike fixed firing sequence designs. The extractors automatically lift spent shells for easy removal without the complexity of ejectors. Turkish walnut stocks provide classic aesthetics with enhanced grip texture compared to synthetic alternatives. The semi-gloss oil finish resists moisture while maintaining the wood's natural beauty.
Key Features
- 26-inch chrome-lined barrels with 3-inch chamber capacity for versatile load options
- Single selective trigger with barrel selection capability
- Five interchangeable choke tubes (Improved Cylinder, Modified, Full, plus two additional)
- Turkish walnut stock with semi-gloss oil finish and ambidextrous design
- Extractors for reliable shell removal without ejector complexity
- Black receiver with durable finish coating
- Manual safety located in trigger guard for quick access
Field testing shows consistent patterns with both 2.75-inch and 3-inch 410 shells across various choke configurations. The 26-inch barrel length provides optimal velocity for small game hunting while remaining manageable for younger or smaller-framed shooters. Weather resistance comes from the oil-finished wood and protective receiver coating. The break-action design ensures reliable function even with light target loads that might not cycle semi-automatic actions.
