Description

There are plenty of wood-stocked autoloaders out there, but not many stop people at the gun counter the way this one does. The Maxus II Hunter Maple wears a gloss-finished AAA Grade maple stock set against a black anodized receiver and matte blued 26-inch barrel, and the contrast between the light figured wood and the dark metalwork is genuinely striking. A SHOT Show Special from Browning, it takes the proven Maxus II platform and dresses it up without changing what makes it work so well.

What Makes the Maxus II Hunter Run

Underneath the pretty wood is Browning's Power Drive Gas System, which cycles a wide range of 2 3/4 and 3-inch loads while soaking up a noticeable amount of recoil. Combine that with the Inflex II recoil pad and you get a 12 gauge that stays comfortable through a long day of clays or a busy morning in the dove field. The Lightning Trigger carries the fastest lock time of any autoloader, breaking clean with minimal travel, and the back-bored barrel works with the included Invector-Plus choke system to keep patterns even and shot deformation down. Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder tubes come in the box, so you can cover most upland and clays situations right away.

A Fit You Can Fine Tune

The stock is shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast, and drop, which means you can dial the gun to your build instead of adapting your mount to the gun. That matters more than most people realize; a shotgun that fits swings better and hits more. Sighting is handled by a fiber-optic front bead over a ventilated rib with an ivory mid-bead, giving your eye a fast, natural reference on crossing birds and clays alike.

Where the Maxus II Hunter Maple Fits

At about 7 pounds with a 47 3/8-inch overall length, this gun carries easily and swings smoothly, splitting the difference between a dedicated clays gun and a pure field piece. It holds 4+1 and handles everything from light target loads to heavier hunting fodder. If you want one autoloader that earns compliments at the club and pulls its weight in the field, this is a strong way to go.

Frequently Asked Questions

What choke tubes come with the Browning Maxus II Hunter Maple?

It ships with three flush-fit Invector-Plus choke tubes: Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder. That set covers most upland hunting and clays work right out of the box, and the Invector-Plus system gives you plenty of aftermarket options if you want to add specialty tubes later.

Will the Maxus II Hunter cycle light target loads reliably?

Yes, that is one of the platform's strong suits. The Power Drive Gas System is tuned to run everything from light 2 3/4-inch target loads up to heavy 3-inch hunting loads without adjustment. The gas operation also takes a real bite out of felt recoil, which the Inflex II pad softens further.

Can I adjust the fit of the maple stock?

You can. The stock is shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast, and drop, so you can tailor the gun to your frame and mounting style. A properly fitted shotgun points more naturally and helps you break more targets, so it is worth taking the time to set it up.

Is the Maxus II Hunter Maple better suited for hunting or clays?

It does both well. At around 7 pounds with a 26-inch barrel, it carries comfortably in the field and still swings smoothly enough for sporting clays. Browning positions it as a dual-purpose gun, and the included choke selection backs that up.
