Description

There's a reason the Citori name has been around since 1973. Built by Miroku in Japan to Browning's standards, these over/unders have earned a reputation for going tens of thousands of rounds without complaint, and the Hunter Grade I keeps that tradition alive in a gun that's meant to be carried, not babied. This version pairs a 26 inch barrel set with a 20 gauge frame, which adds up to a light, lively gun that comes to the shoulder fast when a grouse or quail flushes at your feet.

What Makes the Citori Hunter Grade I Tick

Under the hood you get the same bones as every Citori: a full-width tapered locking bolt, a hinge pin that runs the full width of the steel receiver, hammer ejectors that kick out fired hulls and lift unfired shells for easy removal, and a single selective trigger with a tang-mounted safety that doubles as your barrel selector. The 3 inch chrome-lined chambers shrug off corrosion and clean up quickly, and the barrels feature Browning's Vector Pro lengthened forcing cones and back-bored design for smoother patterns and a bit less felt recoil. Three flush Invector-Plus chokes in Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder cover everything from tight passing shots to close flushes over a pointing dog.

Field Looks That Earn Their Keep

The Grade I American walnut wears a smooth satin finish that won't glare in the sun, and the blued barrels and receiver get a touch of gold enhancement so it still looks like a Browning when you pull it from the case. An Inflex recoil pad directs the comb down and away from your cheek on the shot, which matters less in a soft-shooting 20 gauge but is welcome all the same. The 50/50 point of impact suits field work where birds can appear from any angle, and the silver bead up front keeps the sight picture simple. At right around six pounds, this is the kind of gun you can carry all day and still mount cleanly on the last covey rise of the afternoon.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Browning Citori Hunter Grade I safe to shoot steel shot?

Yes. Browning builds Citori barrels with steel shot performance in mind, and the Invector-Plus choke system handles modern non-toxic loads well. That makes this 20 gauge a solid pick if you hunt areas where non-toxic shot is required, like waterfowl production areas and refuges. Just follow the usual guidance of avoiding steel through the Full choke at maximum constriction with larger shot sizes.

How heavy is the Citori Hunter Grade I in 20 gauge?

The 20 gauge version runs right around 6 pounds, which is one of its biggest draws as a field gun. Paired with the 26 inch barrels, it carries easily on long walks and swings quickly on flushing birds. It's noticeably handier than its 12 gauge sibling without giving up much on game inside typical upland ranges.

Can I shoot both 2 3/4 inch and 3 inch shells in this shotgun?

Yes. The 3 inch chambers accept both 2 3/4 and 3 inch 20 gauge shells, so you can run light target loads at the clays range and step up to heavier hunting loads in the field. The chrome-lined chambers also resist corrosion and make cleanup easier after a wet day outside.

Does the Citori Hunter Grade I have ejectors or extractors?

It has true hammer ejectors. Fired hulls are kicked clear when you open the action, while unfired shells are simply lifted for easy removal by hand. That makes for fast reloads when doubles flush, and it's a feature you don't always find on over/unders in this class.
