If you're familiar with Browning, you're familiar with the company's venerable Citori line of shotguns—it's been around forever. That said, back in 2012, Browning revamped the family a bit with the addition of the Citori 725. The 725 is an evolution of John Browning’s legendary B25 Superposed, and benefits greatly from the modern performance advantage of a low-profile receiver. The 725’s receiver is lower than other Citori 12-gauge receiversand that’s not just a manufacturing trick. Browning really did shave a few fractions off the receiver’s height, which is especially noticeable if you place it next to a Citori 625, the shotgun that it has largely replaced. You can learn more about the Citori 725 line with the video embedded above, hosted by Digital Managing Editor Shawn Skipper.

Member's Hunt: Patience is Tough When You Shoot a Big Buck

My phone still in my hands, I texted my teenage son, who was hunting along the field not far away.

Behind the Bullet: The .308 Norma Magnum

Norma’s ballistician Nils Kvale saw the wisdom of having the velocity and horsepower of the .300 H&H Magnum, but in a shorter, more affordable receiver, and used the H&H case to develop his .358 Norma Magnum in 1959 as well as the .308 Norma Magnum one year later. The .308 Norma Magnum closely resembles the wildcat .30-338 cartridge, though the shoulder of the former is located a bit more toward the base than that of the .308 Norma Magnum. Intrigued?
