Browning B825 Game RPG Inv. DS

The stock of the Game Round Pistol Grip 12M over-and-under shotgun from the B825 series by Browning is designed for enthusiasts of the reduced round pistol grip.If a construction principle has only slightly modified over 100 years, one can assume that it has some merit. Thus, the new B825 series from Browning combines the proven tradition of the legendary B25 with a century of experience and the latest technical developments. This is evident not least in the fact that the shotgun has achieved optimizations in some areas compared to the 725 predecessor model, making its use more comfortable. Characteristic of the Game Round Pistol Grip 12M version is the reduced pistol grip on the buttstock, or in Browning's terminology: the Round Pistol Grip.

The Stock
The dimensions of the 375 mm long stock made from high-quality walnut ensure an optimal view over the rib and a quick target acquisition. Its surface is finished with a glossy oil finish. The round reduced pistol grip has, like the standard version, an ergonomically perfect shape, so that the shooting hand remains relaxed at all times. Depending on the shape and size of the hand, one may find a Round Pistol Grip more comfortable. The grip surfaces on the grip and the fore-end are equipped with a pleasantly textured fish skin structure. In the Game Round Pistol Grip 12M version, optional stock weights for the Pro Balance system can be purchased, allowing you to individually balance the B825.

Action and Locking Mechanism
Like all shotguns from Browning, the steel action of the B825 Game Round Pistol Grip 12M features a continuous hinge and conical locking lugs. This guarantees reliability and safety. The action is kept low and has a clear line design, which facilitates recoil control and minimizes barrel rise. Its surface is coated with a silver nitrate finish. This is highly wear-resistant and effectively protects against corrosion, contributing to the longevity of the shotgun. In the Game version, the surface of the action, as well as the trigger guard and fore-end release lever, is engraved with hunting motifs. Hammer ejectors ensure prompt ejection of the cartridges, and unfired shells are lifted for easy removal. The safety button also serves as the selector, making handling easier. The B825 is equipped with a mechanical Fire Lite 2 trigger system for optimal second shot performance. The dry, short, and quick release ensures high accuracy. The B825 Game Round Pistol Grip 12M is designed for the caliber 12/76.

The Barrels
The B825 features Back Bored Vector Pro barrels with an enlarged bore diameter and an extended transition cone. This construction principle increases speed and ensures better penetration. The 6 mm wide ventilated rib keeps the barrels cool and avoids distortions caused by heat mirage. The proven Invector DS Pro Extended chokes are used. These press against the barrel walls, thereby protecting the threads and are easily replaceable even after heavy use. To optimize ballistics, they extend beyond the barrels. You can choose between barrel lengths of 76 cm and 81 cm for the B825 Game Round Pistol Grip 12M.
