Browning Citori White Lightning 12GA 3.5" 28" Shotgun - Moose

The Browning Citori White Lightning delivers exceptional versatility for waterfowl hunters pursuing moose and large game with its robust 12-gauge 3.5-inch chamber capacity. This over/under shotgun combines Browning's legendary reliability with enhanced power handling for demanding hunting conditions. Built on the proven Citori action, it provides consistent performance across diverse hunting scenarios.

What Makes This Different

The White Lightning variant features silver nitride receiver finish that resists corrosion while maintaining an elegant appearance in harsh field conditions. Unlike standard hunting shotguns, the 3.5-inch chamber capability handles both standard and magnum loads without modification. The 28-inch barrel length optimizes velocity for long-range shots while maintaining manageable swing characteristics for moving targets.

Key Features

• 12-gauge chamber accepts 2¾", 3", and 3.5" shells for maximum versatility
• 28-inch barrel length provides optimal velocity and accuracy for waterfowl hunting
• Silver nitride receiver finish offers superior corrosion resistance
• Traditional boxlock action with mechanical triggers for reliable ignition
• Invector-Plus choke tube system included for pattern customization

Field performance centers on the gun's ability to cycle different load types without adjustment, from light target loads to heavy waterfowl magnums. The mechanical trigger system eliminates concerns about battery failure in extreme cold conditions common during moose hunting seasons. Barrel regulation ensures consistent point of impact between barrels at typical hunting ranges of 25-40 yards.
