Stevens 301 Turkey XP 20 Gauge 3" 1-Round Camo Shotgun

The Stevens 23218 301 Turkey XP 20 Gauge 3" 1rd 26" Matte Black Barrel in Mossy Oak Bottomland is a purpose-built shotgun for serious turkey hunters and tactical shooters who demand reliability in the field. This break-open single-shot design delivers the precision and simplicity required for precision hunting applications, where a clean, decisive shot matters. Built on Stevens' proven platform, the Turkey XP combines modern ergonomics with time-tested mechanics to give hunters confidence in variable conditions.

The 20-gauge chamber accepts 3-inch ammunition, providing effective range and pattern density for turkey-sized game without excessive recoil—a critical advantage during long sit-and-wait hunts where shooter fatigue can affect accuracy. The 26-inch matte black barrel minimizes glint and reflection, while the included 1x30 red dot sight eliminates parallax issues at typical turkey distances and reduces target acquisition time. The extra-full choke tube tightens the shot pattern for maximum lethality, and the polymer furniture in Mossy Oak Bottomland camo ensures durability while keeping the rifle-style weight at 7.6 lbs manageable for extended carries. The break-open action is simple to maintain, unload, and inspect—essential features when hunting from blinds or moving between locations.

Hunters selecting the Stevens 23218 Turkey XP benefit from a no-nonsense platform that prioritizes shot placement over magazine capacity. The ambidextrous design accommodates both right- and left-handed shooters, removing logistics from firearm selection. Federal Firearms License holders can stock this model with confidence; it's a popular choice among serious turkey operations and outdoor enthusiasts who value simplicity, reliability, and field-proven camo patterns. The included red dot allows immediate deployment with zero setup time.
