2024 Browning Canada Catalog

BROWNING.COM 2 FEATHER TECHNOLOGY • Browning Feather technology reduces weight by about one pound by using a high quality alloy rather than steel for the receiver. • Steel components are added to high-wear areas such as the breech face and hinge surfaces for added durability. INFLEX® RECOIL PAD • Inflex recoil pads are made from a soft, recoil absorbing material. • Directional deflection construction guides the comb down and away from the face for greater shooting comfort and faster, more accurate follow-up shots. HIGH RIB • Offers increased visibility on target models, meaning the barrels don’t cover up the clay bird. • Improved cooling helps prevent heat waves from distorting visibility. SILVER NITRIDE • Silver nitriding is a proprietary process known as salt bath ferritic nitrocarburizing. • Compared to coating or heat treatment processes, silver nitride offers the advantages of: Excellent cosmetic finish, improved wear resistance, increased fatigue strength, and added protection against corrosion. FLOATING RIB • A floating rib prevents point of impact shifts caused by barrel heating as it allows the rib and barrel to expand independently. MICRO ANDMICROMIDAS FIREARMS • Micro and Micro Midas firearms feature shorter lengths of pull that give smaller shooters a great fitting firearm with the same quality as all Browning firearms. • Micro Midas models have the shortest lengths of pull, while Micro models are usually an inch or less longer than Micro Midas models. STEEL SHOT PERFORMANCE • Browning has pioneered construction techniques that maximize both steel shot performance and barrel durability. • Browning barrel blanks are made from rolled and tempered steel bars and are stress relieved to offer exceptional mechanical properties. The barrel blanks are then precision drilled, reamed, and honed to precise construction quality standards. TOTAL BARREL DYNAMICS • Total Barrel Dynamics is the combination of Vector Pro forcing cone lengthening, Back-Bored Technology, and an Invector interchangeable choke tube system working in unison to optimize shot pattern performance. Each component of Total Barrel Dynamics plays a part to reduce shot deformation, improve pattern density, and put more pellets on the target. • Total Barrel Dynamics is featured on A5, BT-99, and on 12, 20, and 28 gauge Citori 725, Citori, and Cynergy models. VECTOR PRO LENGTHENED FORCING CONE • The forcing cone is the tapered transition between the chamber and the bore that constricts the shot column. Vector Pro is superior because it has a long, gradual taper. • The Vector Pro forcing cone reduces stress on the shot column as it moves into the bore to reduce pellet deformation for more uniform patterns and more pellets in the center of the pattern. • Lengthening forcing cones is a popular and expensive aftermarket practice but it comes standard on A5, BT-99, and on 12, 20, and 28 gauge Citori 725, Citori, and Cynergy models. BACK-BORED TECHNOLOGY • Back-boring enlarges the bore to the ideal diameter to increase shot velocity and minimize pellet deformity for more uniform patterns and a reduction in felt recoil. • Back-Bored Technology reduces the friction between the shot cup and the bore, but does not allow gases to slip past the shot cup that would result in reduced pellet velocity and blown patterns. • Back-Bored Technology is standard on A5, Maxus II, BT-99, and on 12, 20, and 28 gauge Citori 725, Citori, Cynergy, and Silver models. INVECTOR-DS CHOKE TUBE SYSTEM • “DS” stands for double-seal, our proprietary differential-banded brass seal. It compresses against the barrel wall to keep the choke tube threads clean, making installation and removal easier than any other muzzle thread system. • Muzzle-end threads minimize the flare at the end of the barrel for improved shotgun appearance. A slightly lighter overall barrel weight is achieved for a faster swing and improved balance. • The more gradual taper of Invector-DS choke tubes reduces shot deformation for fewer flyers and gaps in the pattern and allows higher shot velocities for hard-hitting performance. • From Cylinder to Extra Full, Invector-DS shot patterns tighten consistently in reliable, evenly scaled steps. • Invector-DS is standard on A5 and 12 and 20 gauge Citori 725 models. INVECTOR-PLUS CHOKE TUBE SYSTEM • Invector-Plus provides championship winning performance. • The long choke taper inside an Invector-Plus choke tube produces consistent patterns with more uniform densities and fewer flyers. • Threads on the breech end of the choke tube prevent gases from slipping between the choke tube and barrel that could damage the choke tube and bulge the barrel. • Invector-Plus is standard on 12 and 20 gauge Maxus II, Citori, Cynergy, Silver, and BT-99 models. STANDARD INVECTOR CHOKE TUBE SYSTEM • The Standard Invector interchangeable choke tube system offers consistent, dense shot patterns with the right constriction needed for the shooting situation. • Threads on the breech end of the choke tube help prevent gases from slipping between the choke tube and barrel that could damage the choke tube and bulge the barrel. • Standard Invector is standard on 16 and 28 gauge, and .410 bore Citori 725, Citori, and Cynergy models.
