Savage Arms Stevens 555 20ga Over/Under Shotgun - Oil Brown Finish (Model 22166)

The Savage Arms Stevens 555 20ga over/under shotgun in oil brown finish delivers real performance without the premium price tag that comes with some competitors. This lightweight 20-gauge is built for hunters and sport shooters who want a reliable, fast-handling gun that won't wear you out on a long day in the field. The aluminum receiver keeps weight down while maintaining the strength needed for consistent, dependable shooting—a smart engineering choice that makes a real difference when you're moving through brush or spending hours at the clay course.

What makes the Stevens 555 stand out is how much capability Savage packed into an accessible over/under design. The 28-inch chrome-lined carbon steel barrels are tuned for clean patterns and longevity, and the Turkish walnut furniture gives the gun a working-gun aesthetic that ages well. The single selective mechanical trigger lets you choose which barrel fires first, and the manual extractors are straightforward—no complexity, no battery, no failure points to worry about. The tang-mounted safety is positioned where your hand naturally goes, making it intuitive to use whether you're right- or left-handed.

Versatility comes standard. The gun ships with a complete set of choke tubes—Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Cylinder—so you can tune the pattern for everything from tighter upland birds to close-quarters jump shooting or clay targets. That flexibility alone saves you money down the road and keeps one gun relevant across different seasons and scenarios.
