Description
Most over unders live a pampered life at the sporting clays course. The Cynergy Wicked Wing was built for the opposite kind of duty: flooded timber, layout blinds, salt marsh, and everything else that eats nice bluing for breakfast. Browning wrapped the metalwork in Burnt Bronze Cerakote, dressed the composite stock in Auric camo, and chrome plated the chambers and bores so this gun shrugs off the wet, gritty conditions that would send a walnut and blued gun home early.
Why the Cynergy Action Makes Sense in a Duck Blind
The Cynergy's ultra low profile receiver and MonoLock hinge are what set it apart from other stack barrels. That hinge gives the action roughly 300 percent more pivot surface than a typical trunnion design, so it wears in instead of wearing out, and rectangular locking pins keep everything locked up tight season after season. The mechanical Reverse Striker trigger is a big deal for waterfowlers too. It does not need recoil to set the second hammer, so if a light load or a misfire happens on the bottom barrel, the top one is still ready to go. When a flock is cupped up over the decoys, that matters.
Built for 3.5 Inch Loads Without Beating You Up
The 3.5 inch chambers let you run full house goose loads when you need them, and the long travel Inflex recoil pad does a genuinely good job of soaking up the hit. An adjustable comb and included quarter inch stock spacer let you dial the fit to your face and layers, which pays off in more consistent mounts on cold mornings. The 26 inch vent rib barrels swing quick in tight timber and cramped blinds, with ivory front and mid beads riding a 60/40 point of impact.
What Comes with the Wicked Wing Auric
Browning includes three extended Invector-Plus Goose Band choke tubes in Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder, so you are covered from decoying birds to passing shots right out of the box. At around 7.4 pounds it carries fine on a long walk in and still settles down nicely for the shot. This is the rare over under you can hunt hard without a second thought.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Cynergy Wicked Wing handle 3.5 inch waterfowl loads?
Yes, it is chambered for 3.5 inch shells, so you can run heavy goose and duck loads as well as standard 2.75 and 3 inch shells. The long travel Inflex recoil pad takes real bite out of the big magnums, and the sturdy MonoLock hinge action is built to handle a steady diet of them.
What choke tubes come with the Browning Cynergy Wicked Wing Auric?
It ships with three extended Invector-Plus Goose Band choke tubes: Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder. That covers most waterfowl situations from birds finishing in the decoys to longer passing shots. Since it uses the Invector-Plus system, there is a huge aftermarket of tubes if you want something more specialized.
Is this shotgun safe to use with steel shot?
Yes. The bores and chambers are hard chrome plated, and the included extended Invector-Plus chokes are designed with modern non-toxic loads in mind. Steel, bismuth, and tungsten based waterfowl loads are all fair game with the appropriate choke.
Why choose the 26 inch barrels over the 28 or 30 inch versions?
The 26 inch setup is the quickest handling of the bunch, which is a real advantage in flooded timber, layout blinds, and boats where space is tight. You give up a little of the smooth, deliberate swing the longer barrels offer on passing shots, but for fast shooting over decoys the shorter barrels are hard to beat. It also makes the gun a bit lighter and easier to pack in.
