The Browning Gold is a proven standard for autoloading performance. Featuring Brownings speed loading, with the action open. the first shell inserted into the magazine is sent directly to the chamber, ready to be fired. There is less recoil with the active valve, using gas from fired shells to operate the action instead of contributing to recoil. Because the Active Valve expels unnecessary gases, it naturally reduces recoil before it ever reaches your shoulder. they also feature a magazine cut-off, and are equipped with the Invector-Plus choke tube system.
Features :
- Receiver: Aluminum alloy
- Barrel: entilated rib
- Action: Gas-operated autoloader, Active Valve reliably cycles a wide range of loads
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 10 gauge has been with us since Winchester introduced it in 1887. The original black powder load was 2 7/8” long. Modern day chambers and ammunition are 3 ½” and most commonly used for waterfowl or Turkey hunting. The payload normally runs between 1 3/8 oz. and 2 3/8 oz. The 10 gauge fell out of favor when the 12 gauge was introduced but the necessity to use steel shot for waterfowl hunting revived this gauge in the longer 3 ½” version. With steel shot available up to size “T” some hunters claim to be able to down geese out to 90 yards. The 10 gauge barrel has a nominal bore diameter of: .775 inch. Ammunition is in current production in the 3 ½” length from Federal, Remington, Winchester, Heavy Shot and Estate. Available in lead or steel shot as well as other non toxic loads. — Craig Boddington
