NRA Publications Editorial Director John Zent tests out the Benelli Lupo on a range day at West Virginia's Prospect Hall Hunting Club. While the Lupo already provided a platform precise enough to win American Rifleman's rifle of the year, the gun has recieved several updates for 2021. Chief among these is the addition of short action calibers like 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Winchester, and .243 Winchester. For more on this, check out the video above, or visit benelliusa.com. MSRP: $1,699
