This designation refers to a specific shotgun produced by Browning Arms Company. It combines the manufacturer (Browning), the choke tube system (Invector Plus), the model (Citori), the barrel material (special steel), and the gauge (20). This combination signifies a high-quality over-and-under shotgun designed for various shooting disciplines, from hunting to competitive clay target sports. The “special steel” barrels are known for their durability and resistance to wear, while the Invector Plus choke system allows for interchangeable chokes, enabling shooters to tailor shot patterns for different purposes.
The selection of a 20-gauge platform offers a balance between manageable recoil and effective shot payloads. This makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of users and hunting applications, particularly for smaller game birds and upland hunting. The Citori line of shotguns are renowned for their reliability, craftsmanship, and longevity, making them a popular choice among discerning shooters. The Invector Plus choke tubes contribute significantly to the shotgun’s performance, providing consistent patterns and allowing for fine-tuning based on the specific ammunition and hunting conditions. This particular combination of features results in a firearm well-suited for both novice and experienced shooters.
