The Weatherby 18i series stands as a testament to engineering prowess and field-tested reliability, designed for those who demand unwavering performance in the harshest conditions. At its core lies an inertia recoil system that ensures dependable cycling with every shot, delivering an evenly-weighted firearm that feels balanced and responsive.
This shotgun is chambered in a versatile 3" configuration, making it adept at handling lighter target loads and small game ammunition with equal efficiency. The precision-machined receiver, crafted from billet aluminum, offers both strength and simplicity—a hallmark of quality craftsmanship.
Ergonomics are paramount in the Weatherby 18i. Its advanced polymer stock is not only shim adjustable to accommodate shooters of all statures but also features a soft-touch area on the cheek rest for added comfort during prolonged use. Aggressive texturing on the palm and foregrip provides superior control under any condition, where rugged toughness meets user-friendly design.
Target acquisition becomes second nature with the full-length ventilated rib paired with high luminous LPA fiber front sights—ensuring clarity even when lighting conditions fall short. The Crio Plus choke system further enhances versatility; five choke tubes come standard (cylinder improved cylinder modified improved modified full), neatly stored in an included case alongside a choke wrench.
Camo pattern adheres directly to all metalwork and stock components ensuring longevity through countless adventures.
Additionally complementing this robust construction is a chrome-lined bore promising durability over extensive use.
The Weatherby 18i accommodates up to four rounds plus one more chambered or two plus one using provided magazine limiting plug—all while offering compatibility with magazine tube extensions should you require extra capacity outfield.
