What are the key features of the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge Over and Under?
The Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge Over and Under offers a straightforward design with practical features for a variety of shooting applications. The black anodized aluminum receiver contributes to its lighter weight, which is noticeable when you’re carrying it through the field. The chrome-lined barrels are a good touch for durability and ease of cleaning, especially after a long day of breaking clays or hunting. You get five interchangeable choke tubes, which is standard for versatility, allowing you to tailor your shot pattern for different situations, whether it’s dove hunting or sporting clays. The Turkish walnut stock and forend provide a traditional feel and a decent grip. The mechanical trigger is consistent, and the manual safety is easily accessible on the tang. The selectable barrel feature is handy for choosing which barrel fires first, which can be useful depending on your target and choke selection. For an entry-level over and under, it brings a decent set of features to the table without a hefty price tag.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge Over and Under
What is the main advantage of a 20 gauge over and under shotgun?
A 20 gauge over and under shotgun offers a lighter carry weight and reduced recoil compared to a 12 gauge, making it more comfortable for smaller shooters, those sensitive to recoil, or for long days in the field. The over and under configuration provides two quick shots without needing to cycle an action, and the ability to select barrels and chokes is a benefit.
Is the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced suitable for hunting?
Yes, the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge is suitable for various hunting applications, particularly upland birds like quail, pheasant, and dove. Its lightweight design makes it easy to carry, and the 20 gauge offers sufficient power for these game birds. The interchangeable chokes allow you to adapt your shot pattern to different hunting scenarios.
Can I use steel shot with the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced?
Generally, shotguns with chrome-lined barrels and modern choke tubes are rated for steel shot. However, it is always best to consult the owner’s manual for your specific Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced model to confirm steel shot compatibility and any restrictions on choke constriction when using steel shot. Using chokes tighter than Modified with steel shot is often not recommended.
What kind of maintenance does an over and under shotgun require?
Like any firearm, an over and under shotgun requires regular cleaning and lubrication. This includes cleaning the barrels, receiver, and firing pin areas, especially after each use. Pay attention to the hinge pins and locking lugs, keeping them lightly oiled. Inspect for wear on moving parts and ensure chokes are properly seated and free of fouling.
Where can I buy a Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge Over and Under online?
You can purchase the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge Over and Under, and other firearms, online from Kansas Gunshop (kansas-gunshop.com). We are a licensed FFL dealer and facilitate transfers to your local FFL.
Does the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced have ejectors or extractors?
The Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge Over and Under comes with extractors, not automatic ejectors. This means spent shells are lifted out of the chamber for manual removal, rather than being forcefully ejected. This can be a preference for some shooters who do not want shells scattered around their feet.
Is the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced a good shotgun for sporting clays?
For an entry-level shotgun, the Savage Stevens 555 Enhanced 20 Gauge can be used for sporting clays, especially if you’re just starting out or looking for a lighter option. The 20 gauge can be less fatiguing over a long course, and the interchangeable chokes offer versatility. However, dedicated sporting clays shotguns often have heavier barrels, adjustable stocks, and different balance points for competitive shooting.
