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.

Rethinking Ragù: Venison Ragù Bianco

In Italy, ragù simply refers to a slow-cooked meat sauce. Bolognese—ragù alla Bolognese—is just one regional variation that originated in Bologna and traditionally incorporates tomatoes, wine, milk, and finely minced meat simmered low and slow until deeply rich and complex. But some of the most beautiful ragù dishes in Italy contain little or no tomato at all. This version uses axis deer simply because that’s what I happened to have in the freezer, but this sauce works beautifully with almost any species of venison.
