TFL Review Summary
The Browning 825 Sporting is the latest evolution in the legendary Citori lineup, following the 725. Browning slimmed down the receiver, dropped barrel porting, added a matte walnut finish, and introduced the new Fire Lite 2 trigger — a crisp, consistent upgrade that’s a real highlight. It keeps the same Invector-DS choke system, Inflex recoil pad, and solid build quality shooters expect, but comes in lighter overall, giving it a sportier, more responsive feel on the range.
On the course, the 825 Sporting swings fast and feels lively — maybe a little too light for shooters who like a slower, smoother mount. Recoil is noticeable but manageable, and that trigger is among the best in its class. The fit and ergonomics are solid, though taller shooters may prefer the adjustable-comb versions for a more tailored fit. Overall, the 825 Sporting delivers modern handling and clean styling, keeping the classic Citori heritage alive while offering a few new tricks for clay shooters who want something fresh.
