WHEN THE GEOMETRY MAKES DIFFERENCE NEW BERETTA STEELIUM PRO BARRELS. Beretta is considered the largest barrel maker in the world. No one is dedicating such care to select the barrel steel. Steelium is the production technology of Beretta barrels that transforms the special tri-alloy steel (A) into an exceptional barrel, also due to a manufacturing process that is just as unique. Thanks to the deep drilling (B), cold hammer forging (C) and to the special vacuum distension (D), the steel acquires the ideal characteristics to offer the best ballistic performance. Steelium Pro marries the benefits of the Steelium Technology to a new barrel internal profile. The result is a creation of a progressive conicity that allows the DT11 to fix new performance standards.

A NEW LOOK • Developed according to the requirements of the world’s best shooters, the top lever enhances the grip, reduces the stress and provides comfort of use for the left-handed shooters.
The receiver, slender and elegant, though robust, is embellished by the contrast between the mat parts (side walls) and the ribbon borders that adorn the surface, wisely mirror polished. The Beretta logo stands out in blue color.
• The shape of the safety/selector switch has been redesigned for better grip and operation. • Newly designed bridges are internally hollowed, while the side ribs are windowed to improve barrel balance and help dissipate the heat generated with constant shooting.
STABILITY WHILE SWINGING The increase of the receiver side wall thickness adds weight in the baricenter.
• Special finishing on the fences, finely engraved by hand, reduces glare while shooting.

THE SHOOTER IS OUR TARGET… It is not a word play,it is the Beretta philosophy.Creating product with their users in mind,by satisfying also the small needs, because on the podium they arrive also thanks to the care of details. The attention to details in the full respect of the aesthetic and design: nothing is left to case.
• Removal of trigger group occurs in three distinct steps and the detachment is possible only when the shotgun is safely broken open. • The trigger can be easily adjusted and finely tuned into position. • The carefully tapered rear of the barrel and the profile of the fences allow rapid target acquisition during instinctive shouldering. • Micro-Core recoil pad. Thanks to the open cell technopolymer, softer, lighter and more slippery than rubber, Micro-Core expands gradually and instantly, increasing its surface area on the shoulder and giving the shotgun secure and precise support.

… AND THE PERFORMANCE ARE THE RESULT • The specific point of impact has been carefully considered in designing the DT11. While the models for Trap, Skeet and Sporting have a common central point of impact, the models designed for American Trap are characterized by a high point of impact. • The mass is correctly distributed to allow the shotgun to have a center of mass coaxial with the bottom barrel, eliminating muzzle raise and affording faster target acquisition on the second shot. • The “V” shape mainsprings assure lightning-fast lock times and ultra crisp trigger pulls.
DT11: MORE THAN A COMPETITION SHOTGUN The DT11 is treated as Premium Grade shotguns at all phases of production. A focus on detail and the coupling of all components, primary (receiver, barrel, fore-end iron) and secondary (trigger group, top lever) makes each shotgun unique, giving the shooter an instrument that has been personally tested and perfected by the master gunsmith of the world’s oldest firearms manufacturer.
High selected woods The high quality walnut woods are hand finished according to the shooter’s choice (oil, Tru Oil®, wax finishing). The stock and fore-end can be fitted to customer’s measurement. The pistol grip and the fore-end are hand-checkered to both ensure a solid grip and to complement the overall design of the shogun.
An elegant guncase in silver-colored polymeric material, emblazoned with the Beretta logo, is provided with the DT11.
