The Weatherby Element 2 Waterfowler 20 Gauge is an inertia-driven semi-automatic shotgun covered in Realtree Max-7 camouflage, with a 28-inch barrel and a 3-inch chamber (Weatherby part no. EW22028PGM). The hydrodipped finish covers the stock, receiver and barrel, and the bore is chrome lined for waterfowl use. Oversized controls help in less-than-ideal conditions, and the competition-cut receiver makes loading easier. It is a light 20 gauge for ducks and geese over decoys.
