Accokeek, MD -(AmmoLand.com)- Benelli’s first over-and-under shotgun, the acclaimed 828U, continues to add to its collection of accolades and awards by winning the Shotgun of the Year Award at the recent Industry Choice Awards.

The inaugural Industry Choice Awards, presented at a banquet in conjunction with the Firearms Industry Team Challenge at Rockcastle Shooting Center, recognized innovation and creativity in new-product development across a host of outdoor categories ranging from optics to ammunition. An evaluation and voting process to determine the winner of each category included unbiased, hands-on, multi-day testing and evaluation by a panel that included a mix of firearms retailers, distributors, professional shooters, gunsmiths, law enforcement, military personnel, outdoor media and recreational shooters.

Benelli’s 828U redefines what an over-and-under shotgun can be in terms of durability, performance, fit and finish while still honoring the classic over-and-under configuration. Double-gun purists praise the 828U’s ease of pointing, custom comb and drop adjustments, as well as the feel and balance indicative of a fine, Italian-made shotgun. Representing the ultimate blend of form and function from a company defined by its innovations, the 828U is as practical and versatile as it is beautiful.

“The 828U is a fine example of Benelli’s continual push for innovation. It was designed to be the ultimate hunting shotgun and its fit, feel and durability make it just that,” said Benelli USA General Manager Tom DeBolt. “We are honored to receive this award and proud to be recognized by those within our industry for what we have achieved with the development of the 828U.”
