Introducing the Beretta DT11 Competition Shotgun

The Beretta DT11 is the Italian manufacturer’s flagship competition over-and-under shotgun, universally recognized as the choice of world champions across the disciplines of Trap, Skeet, and Sporting Clays. Succeeding the legendary DT10, the DT11 represents the pinnacle of Beretta’s engineering, built without compromise for the demands of the professional and serious amateur shooter.

It is a true premium shotgun, where every feature is designed to maximize stability, reduce recoil, and deliver absolute consistency.

Key Features for Unmatched Performance

The DT11 is distinguished by a host of advanced features that set it apart:

  • Steelium Pro Barrels: The DT11 is equipped with Beretta’s top-tier barrel technology. Steelium Pro barrels feature an exceptionally long, gradual forcing cone (up to 480mm), which minimizes felt recoil and muzzle rise while ensuring perfect, dense, and uniform shot patterns.
  • Wider Receiver for Stability: The receiver is a vault-tough cross-bolt action, built 3mm wider than its predecessor. This extra width increases the shotgun’s mass between the hands (the barycenter), which significantly enhances stability and reduces barrel jump for a faster, more controlled second shot.
  • Detachable Trigger Group: A hallmark of high-end competition shotguns, the DT11 features a detachable trigger group. This allows the trigger unit to be swapped in seconds for quick servicing or replacement, minimizing downtime during a major competition. The trigger itself is highly consistent and adjustable.
  • Low-Profile Design: The center of gravity is kept low and coaxial with the bottom barrel, which contributes to the DT11’s renowned stability and intuitive pointing characteristics.
  • B-Fast System (Available on Select Models): Many DT11 models come standard with the B-Fast (Beretta Fast Adjustment System Technology), which provides a highly customizable stock, allowing precise adjustments to the length of pull and comb height for a personalized fit.
  • Dedicated Variants: The DT11 is available in specific configurations tailored for each clay discipline: DT11 Trap, DT11 Skeet, and DT11 Sporting (including the All Clays System – ACS variant), ensuring that every shooter can find a model optimized for their chosen sport.

The Beretta DT11 is not merely a shotgun; it is a meticulously engineered precision instrument built for the podium.
