The Browning Citori 725 Field in 410 gauge delivers precision small-bore performance with the legendary reliability of the Citori platform. This over/under shotgun combines traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering to excel in upland hunting and sporting applications where finesse matters more than raw power.
What Makes This Different
The 725 Field features Browning's Vector Pro lengthened forcing cones and back-boring technology, creating optimal shot patterns with reduced felt recoil. Unlike standard 410 shotguns, this model includes three Invector-DS choke tubes for versatile performance across different hunting scenarios. The silver nitride receiver finish provides superior corrosion resistance while maintaining the classic aesthetic that defines the Citori series.
Key Features
- 26-inch blued barrels with Vector Pro forcing cones for consistent patterns
- Silver nitride finished receiver with hand-engraved accent work
- Grade II/III gloss oil-finished black walnut stock and forearm
- Inflex Technology recoil pad reduces felt recoil by up to 50%

Field testing demonstrates exceptional balance and pointability, making this shotgun particularly effective for quail, dove, and woodcock hunting. The 410 gauge chambering handles both 2.5-inch and 3-inch shells, providing versatility for different game and shooting conditions. Weather-sealed action components ensure reliable function in wet conditions, while the low-profile receiver maintains quick target acquisition.
