The Beretta 690 Field III is an O/U positioned between the 686 and 687 series, featuring a new-generation Optima Bore HP barrel system with a larger bore diameter and longer forcing cone for improved pattern efficiency and reduced recoil. The 28-inch barrels in 12 gauge are the standard field configuration. The 690 uses a revised receiver design with improved balance and a crisper factory trigger pull than the 686.
