Best New Upland Shotguns for 2020

Best New Upland Shotguns for 2020

Browning Cynergy Feather

Browning Cynergy Feather

The Browning Cynergy line of over/unders is adding a brother with the name Feather behind it. This is exciting news for upland hunters who care about every ounce in their shotguns. The Cynergy Feather has an ultra-low profile and aluminum receiver with a steel reinforced breech face. The aluminum receiver helps cut weight off the over/under by one pound, keeping the overall weight to just over six pounds. A Satin finish Grade one American Walnut stock features an inflex recoil pad. Available with 26- or 28-inch barrels. browning.com

CZ-USA All-Terrain Series

CZ-USA 1012 All-Terrain

We couldn’t choose just one new shotgun from CZ because their new All-Terrain series has five strong choices for upland and waterfowl hunters. The series includes a semi-auto, one side by side, and three over/unders. Clad in a unique OD Cerakote green finish paired with walnut, these shotguns are eye catching and made to withstand harsh elements. The All-Terrain series sets itself apart by adding a set of rare earth magnets to their extractor or ejectors on the side by side and over/under models. That means your shells aren’t falling out in the marsh or when you’re handling your bird dog. cz-usa.com

Benelli 828U 20-Gauge

Benelli 828U 20-Gauge

The wait is over! Benelli is finally releasing their popular 828U over/under in a 20-gauge configuration. The 828U is known for its sleek and contemporary appearance with a smooth body and checkering, as well as a low-profile carbon fiber rib. A high-grade alloy receiver is paired with fine AA-grade satin walnut and Crio barrels and Crio chokes. The 828U includes custom drop and cast adjustments to ensure a perfect fit for all shooters, and the recoil taming Progressive Comfort System. The new 20-gauge 828U is available with 26- or 28-inch barrels and an engraved nickel receiver. benelliusa.com

TriStar Trinity LT

TriStar Trinity LT

If you’re looking for a reliable over/under that has the same look, feel, and functionality of high-priced shotguns, TriStar is your go-to. The new Trinity series from the company features the Trinity LT for bird hunters. Made with a CNC-machined aluminum receiver with hand details and paired with oil-finished Turkish walnut, the Trinity LT is available in .410, 28-, 20-, or 12-gauge. The Trinity LT weighs between 5.3 and 6.3 pounds and is available with 26- or 28-inch barrels. All of this for a price tag of under $700. tristararms.com


Caesar Guerini Revenant 20/28 Gauge Combo

Caesar Guerini Revenant 20/28 Gauge Combo

Even though this isn’t a shotgun you want to hit the field with, it’s worth mentioning because it’s on most uplander’s dream list of shotguns to own. The Revenant was sold out for most of 2019, and Caesar Guerini expects the same this year since they are releasing the over/under with a 20/28 gauge combo barrel set. The Revenant brings art and function together in an affordable package. Caesar Guerini paired modern technology and engineering to create a shotgun that is one-fifth the price of shotguns containing the same features made by hand. A round body action, a winged fore-end iron, a swept back pistol grip, and a tapered solid top rib and mid rib make up this beautiful over/under. The receiver features a unique design of maple leaves and branches from the world leader in fine engravings, Bottega C. Giovanelli and their Director and Master engraver, Dario Cortini. gueriniusa.com
