When I was a kid living in the south for a short time I used to bird hunt and shoot clays with one of those wal-mart throwers and an old 870 wingmaster. That's about the extent of shotgunning that I have. I've been trying to read as much as possible on various clays/shotgun forums. I shot a few clays with my 3gun benelli, Just enough to know I definitely like shooting clays. Now some buddies from work are picking up hunting and doing a little clay shooting as well. This is where the question really comes in. I've got my eye on a Browning Citori 725 30" (maybe adjustable cheek, maybe not?). I mainly want to shoot sporting clays, but I'm also planning on joining my friends on a few hunting trips. I see the 725 also comes in a Field model. I know the barrels are shorter, but that's about it. What are the big differences with the field and sporting clays models? If a plan to do both (hunt and shoot clays) can I get away with just getting one of the two models? Do I really need two different guns? I think sporting models weigh more also have center bead safety doesn't go on automatically I was pheasant hunting yesterday and gun was getting heavy after the 6th mile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmymuller Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 According to me, Benelli is a good shotgun for clay shooting. Its range is good for hunting as well as shooting. You can shoot very easily with this shotgun. Remember that you will shoot 100+ rounds and may be 10 fires in the field per trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
