The Browning Citori 725 Field 20 Gauge transforms upland hunting and clay sports with its refined over/under design and premium construction. This shotgun combines traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering to deliver consistent performance across diverse shooting disciplines.
What Makes This Different
The 725 Field features Browning's Fire Lite mechanical trigger system, providing crisp, consistent trigger pulls shot after shot. Unlike many competitors using inertial triggers, this mechanical design eliminates timing variations caused by different shell weights or shooting positions. The silver nitride receiver finish offers superior corrosion resistance while maintaining the classic aesthetic that defines the Citori line.
Key Features
- 28-inch blued barrels with 3-inch chamber capability for versatile load options
- Fire Lite mechanical trigger system for consistent 4.5-pound pull weight
- Silver nitride finished receiver with hand-engraved accent work
- Grade II/III gloss oil-finished black walnut stock and forearm

Field testing demonstrates the 725's versatility across hunting scenarios from dove fields to pheasant covers. The 28-inch barrel length provides excellent swing dynamics for crossing shots while maintaining maneuverability in thick cover. Weather-sealed action components resist moisture intrusion during extended field use. Competition shooters appreciate the consistent point of impact between barrels and the smooth barrel selection mechanism.
