Top buy and worth the money! Browning 525 Grade 3 30 " superb gun, does exactly what it says on the tin ! can be used as a all round gun. Game DTL Trap ! Shoots all very well with the right selection of chokes!

The overall package of the sporting model is very well done. easy to pick up point and shoot. Nice finish and tight fit should last a long time even with repeated use at the range. the only gripe I have is the selection of walnut , could have defiinitly gone up a few grades at this price point .

I have owned Bereta's, and a gorgeous looking mk38 Trap gun. I shot badly with both despite tuition. I shoot double trap, sporting, and field and have to say all my scores have gone up dramatically using this wonderful gun. My gun is just the basic 525 with no fancy wood work, however it does all you would ever want! The best £1000 quid I have ever spent on a gun.

The browning 525 is a great gun for every one and especially good in left hand fixture. Very well priced for the make and the way that it is made is beautiful.

I like the selective trigger and the way the weapon handles. Nice oil finish on the stock of mine. It's a little pricey at the shop I bought from but the advantage over the internet shopping was being able to handle the weapon. Pick up the weapon before you buy. Not all 525s are the same nor are any weapons. I tried at least 20 different weapons the day I bought. It came down to two and after repeated eyes closed mounting tests, I chose the Browning Citori 525 Field with a slightly higher ...

My advice is to buy something with a mechanical trigger. They are more reliable.

Switched from a Beretta 686E which was a good gun for me although not without the odd problem.
In comparison the B525 feels like a mans gun compared to the "feminine" Beretta.
My Skeet scoring is generally higher, I am somehow more aggressive and I never expect to miss with the B525 which for me is a bargain at the price.
I cant wait to get it out and go and kill more Clays with it.

Best all round shotgun I have owned in many years. First gun I have used straight from the shelf as it didn't require any adjustments as many other makes have done in the past

A good all around gun for either game or clays, i,ve had my 525 for 4 months now and it has really improved my shooting in my opinion, not only that it looks great as well. Good that it is steel proofed because not toxics other than steel are very expensive. well worth the money.

I bought browning 525 a few weeks ago, the choke barrel sometimes misfires, although the firing pin is hitting the cap does not fire. It will be sent back for repair, having spent over 1000 pounds i am very dissapointed!

I tried a Field 525 and a Sporting Clays 525 and I found virtually no difference in the recoil or site picture jump with the ported Sporting Clays model. I was really amazed at how little muzzel jump there was with the standard Browning 525 field model. It must have something to do with the design of the gun as well as how it fits me. I also didn't care for the palm swell on the Sporting Clays model. Although it felt good once it was shouldered, it was not as quick to come up from a normal carry ...

I wanted to wate to write this review until I had at least two hunts and several trips to the trap and skeet range behind me. Quite simply I love this Browning 525. A field it is a solid joy, with its sure grip and set the lower recoil allows for faster follow up and more confidents with those less that idea shooting positions. Admittedly the lighter models have there advantages but what you give up dollar for dollar to go away from the 525 for me is a decision made out of practicality.

Bought my Browning 525 last Friday used it 3 times, very easy gun to get used to. Only had my licence for a week and I'm hooked, was quite an expensive first gun but definitely glad I spent the extra money on it!

I bought my Browning 525 sportster m/c new about a year ago. I have used it for DTL clays (bad idea), Sporting clays (good idea) and for foul (good idea).
I have a Browning XTR trap gun that is much better for clays and far too heavy for pheasant/grouse.
The gun is multi-choke, 2 3/4 and 3" "magnum" cylinders. It is proofed for steel and "high-performance" steel. In the UK it is now compulsory to use "not lead shot" over wet-land.
My serial number - according to Browning - makes my ...

The Browning 525 sporting shotgun offers outstanding value, great feel, total new design and is very different to the previous model 425.
