New for 2025: Browning Citori 825 Sporting

posted on January 20, 2025

Browning’s upgrades to the 825 Citori are evident. The receiver is modernized. The traditional H-shape, receiver-to-fore-end connection is gone, and more fluid lines exist. The barrel leans as it contours into the receiver instead of stepping down into the receiver, which promotes improved fit and feel. The redesigned safety/selector provides more surface area and is therefore easier to engage. The forearm has been upgraded, too; longer and slimmer, it extends your support hand toward the barrels for improved balance, a light-in-the-hand feel and a smoother swing. Browning also beefed up the forearm lever, which makes assembly and disassembly more fluid. The 825 also wears the all-new Fire Lite 2 Mechanical Trigger with a light pull, reduced take-up, a crisp break and less overtravel to improve accuracy.

Of course, like its predecessor the 725, the new 825 Citori features a low-profile receiver that puts your eye closer to the axis of the barrels for excellent hand/eye coordination and improved recoil control for more accurate follow-up shots. The steel receiver sports a strong full-width hinge pin and a tapered locking bolt that wears in, not out.

Built to handle 2 ¾- and 3-inch shells, the 825’s barrels are available in 30- and 32-inch lengths, and are chrome lined and topped with a floating rib to prevent point of impact shifts as things heat up. Browning caps it all off with the Inflex II recoil pad.
