Browning B525 Sporter Laminated
The B525 Sporter Laminated shotgun by Browning is a precision-crafted firearm designed for excellence. Its compact laminated wood stock offers exceptional rigidity, ensuring stability for that perfect shot.
This shotgun is prepared to accept counter-weights, enhancing balance and diminishing felt recoil, all in the pursuit of optimum performance.
For superior aiming capabilities, it features a hi-viz CompSight fiber optic front sight. This sight excels in both daylight and low-light conditions, and it’s available in a variety of colours. CompSight is a trusted choice among shotgun competition shooters and has been favoured by national and Olympic champions.
The Browning B525 is a renowned shotgun model that has earned its place in the hearts of many British shooting enthusiasts. Known for its quality craftsmanship and reliability, the B525 has become a staple in the world of shotguns.
The B525 boasts a 10-year guaranteed receiver, demonstrating Browning’s commitment to durability and customer satisfaction. Its action is forged from indestructible steel, designed to withstand the rigours of consistent use over the years. Notably, the wide, flat bolt provides substantial locking surfaces, three times greater than other systems, ensuring a longer lifespan for the shotgun. The over-sized recoil surfaces contribute to the gun’s remarkable longevity and strength.
The B525 features an INFLEX II recoil pad to provide the best recoil absorption possible. The materials and design of the recoil pad are such that the recoil forces are directed downwards to help pull the stock away from the shooter’s face to reduce recoil and upward motion of the gun. There are four pads available of varying thicknesses to help alter the length of the stock and provide a customised fit.
The B525 features chromed barrels and chambers, a feature highly regarded for its resistance to rust and ease of maintenance. This is a particularly important trait for those who spend time in the British countryside, where the weather can often be wet and unpredictable.
The B525’s back-bored barrel offers several advantages, including increased speed and penetration of shots, improved patterning, and reduced recoil.
The Invector Plus multi-chokes included with the Browning B525 are longer-length tubes, with improved taper designs, delivering superior patterns and performance. The Invector Plus choke system has garnered a well-deserved reputation, making it one of the most popular choices among shooters.
One distinctive aspect of the B525 is the attention to detail in its production. The gun undergoes a meticulous hand-finishing process as it moves from one skilled gunsmith to the next. This craftsmanship ensures that each shotgun meets Browning’s high standards for quality and reliability.
