Browning A5 is built to be the most reliable, fastest cycling, best performing and softest shooting recoil-operated autoloader on the planet. It uses the ultra-reliable, honed to perfection, Kinematic Drive System. Other innovations, like the Invector-DS choke tube system are sure to place the A5 right at the top of the industry. The A5 Ultimate features a lightweight profile, flat, ventilated rib barrel with a gloss blued finish. An Inflex II Technology recoil pad is essential for reducing felt recoil. The receiver is made of strong, lightweight aluminum alloy and is engraved with a pattern showing pheasants on the left side and mallards on the right side. Just like all other A5 models the A5 Ultimate features a Vector Pro lengthened forcing cone and Grade III Walnut stock with gloss oiled finish.

12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells. — Craig Boddington
