The Browning Citori 825 Sporting 20 gauge is an over/under built for sporting clays and skeet (brand part no. 0183226003). Browning fits it with 30-inch barrels, ventilated top and side ribs and a silver nitride receiver. The 20 gauge Sporting Sub-Gauge version gives you less recoil, less weight and easier handling than a 12 gauge, and the low-profile receiver lowers the bore line for a smoother swing. A close-radius pistol grip with palm swell and the adjustable Triple Trigger System help you repeat the same set-up from shot to shot.

Key Specifications

• The gauge is 20, which cuts recoil and weight compared with a 12 gauge while handling most clay targets.
• The chamber is 3 inches, so it takes both standard and 3-inch 20 gauge shells.
• The barrels are 30 inches long, a sporting clays length that adds swing stability.
• The ventilated top and side ribs are 5/16 to 7/16 inch wide, keeping the barrels cool and the sight picture clean.
• The choke system is Invector-DS Extended, and Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder and Skeet tubes come with a T-wrench.
• The barrels are matte blued and the receiver is silver nitride steel, a pairing that resists wear and glare.

• The recoil pad is a large Inflex 2, soft, with internal ribbing designed to push the comb down and away on recoil.
