Browning Maxus Sporting
MAXIMUM RELIABILITY. MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE. Real-world reliability is the most important feature any manufacturer can build into a firearm. Thats why it was the first priority when we set about developing the Browning Maxus. The Power Drive Gas System is designed to perform under harsh hunting and shooting conditions with a wide array of loads. But reliability isnt the whole story. The Maxus delivers 18% less felt recoil for greater comfort, 44% less muzzle jump for more accurate follow-up shots, 19% faster bolt speed and 24% faster locktime than the nearest competitor. Unequalled reliability and features, all found in the finest, most reliable gas-operated autoloader ever to swing on a bird.
Fabarm XLR 5 Velocity FA02142
The most obvious feature of XLR 5 Velocity is an adjustable point-of-impact rib. This ramp style rib starts at the rear of the action at 11mm wide and tapers to 9mm at the muzzle. The rib elevation is easily adjusted with a small thumb wheel at the muzzle end. Point-of impact is adjustable from a 50/50% to 80/20% pattern without the use of tools. The Micro Metric adjustable stock compliments the adjustable rib, allowing the shooter to fine tune the gun for the perfect fit. Additionally, the stock incorporates a shim system for adjusting drop and cast. Another first is the Velocity’s adjustable trigger for length-of-pull. It is the first adjustable trigger ever to be designed into a semi-automatic shotgun. There is also a standard weight system built into the fore-end cap that allows the shooter to alter the weight up to 4 1 ounces in 1 1 once increments. These features make the Velocity extremely versatile. Reliability is critical to competition shooters. To enhance reliability, FABARM’s XLR 5 action has been restricted to accept only 2 3” ammunition. This allows the system to be recalibrated to easily handle the lightest target loads. The Pulse Piston gas system has a polymer insert which works like a progressive break in the gas cylinder. Its key features include the elimination of valves, self cleaning and a significant reduction in felt recoil. To further reduce recoil and increase pattern performance the barrel is designed with a tapered bore called Tribore HP. The bore diameter at the camber end is overbored to .735” and gradually tapers to .725” at the muzzle end. Additionally, there is a recoil reducer included in the stock. The Exis HP choke tubes are 92mm long and utilize a hyperbolic internal design to match the performance of the barrel. Five chokes are included with the Velocity. The bolt release and bolt handle are oversized for competition use.
