These are the features that clearly set the Cynergy apart from other O\/Us. First the Browning Cynergy has a compact action block machined from a steel forging. Instead of hinging on trunnion pins, the Cynergy hinges on quarter-circle cut-outs in the action block with matching projections on the barrel monobloc. This provides considerably more surface area which contributes to the strength and durability of the receiver. Combined with rectangular locking pins with \u201cWear-In-Relief\u201d, this makes for a solid lockup that should stay tight for a long, long time.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_73682\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/011.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"overunder-gobbler-buster-brownings-cyngery-ultimate-turkey-shotgun-full-review\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73682\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" class=\"size-full wp-image-73682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/011.jpg\" alt=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" width=\"950\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/011.jpg 950w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/011-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/011-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/011-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-73682\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Marbles rear sight is complemented by a short rail mount for a compact optic of your choice.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The trigger is superb. It has a little take-up then breaks crisply at about 6 pounds with very little overtravel. The superior trigger characteristics come from the unique action of the Cynergy. There are no hammers. This is a striker-fired gun where the springs work directly on the firing pins via a pair of levers. The sear works directly on the levers producing the crisp trigger break and reduced lock time, the time between when the trigger breaks and the firing pin ignites the primer. Quicker is better.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_73684\" style=\"width: 373px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/013.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"overunder-gobbler-buster-brownings-cyngery-ultimate-turkey-shotgun-full-review\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73684\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-73684\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/013-363x300.jpg\" alt=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" width=\"363\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/013-363x300.jpg 363w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/013-150x124.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/013-768x635.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/013.jpg 950w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 363px) 100vw, 363px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-73684\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The circle within a circle of the Marbles rear sight makes for faster alignment with the target and front sight.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Another unique trait of the trigger is that it\u2019s completely mechanical. No inertia is needed for the hammers (strikers) to set. This eliminates the chance that the second barrel won\u2019t fire if the first shot is a misfire, giving you a more dependable firearm.<\/p>\n<p>The safety is tang mounted and is also used to select barrels. Instead of being labeled I and II which is common, the positions are labeled O and U for clarity. (I can\u2019t be the only one who\u2019s forgotten which barrel II was.)<\/p>\n<p>You might think that this is enough innovation for one gun, but no, there\u2019s more. There\u2019s a lot going on inside the barrels. First they are back bored. If you\u2019re not familiar with back-boring a shotgun chamber, there are several advantages to making the bore diameter slightly larger than standard. There is less pressure of the shot charge against the barrel wall. This reduces friction allowing the charge to accelerate more quickly while also reducing shot deformation. Another bonus is a slight reduction in recoil.<\/p>\n<p>Reducing shot deformation, of course, is the secret to keeping the shot pattern tight and consistent. To that end, the taper in the transition from the bore diameter to the barrel diameter (forcing cone) is longer than standard. This is a popular customizing practice that comes standard on the Cynergy. The Cynergy Turkey gun also comes with extended choke tubes which provide a smoother transition for the shot through the chokes. As you\u2019ll see in the range review, it all works.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_73679\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/003.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"overunder-gobbler-buster-brownings-cyngery-ultimate-turkey-shotgun-full-review\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73679\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" class=\"size-full wp-image-73679\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/003.jpg\" alt=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" width=\"950\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/003.jpg 950w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/003-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/003-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/003-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-73679\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Robust ejector springs ensure positive cartridge extraction.

Typical Colorado high country turkey weather. For the longer shots, I used the Ultimate Full Turkey extended choke. For the closer shots, I used the extended Spreader.<\/p>\n<p>I worked thorough the loads from the lightest to the heaviest for obvious reasons. First was the Federal Premium 2\u00be-inch Heavyweight Turkey ammunition throwing 1 \u00bc oz of #7 shot. You might question the use of 7s on turkey, but this isn\u2019t lead shot. Federal uses a metal that\u2019s 35% denser than lead. That means this shot hits like a 3-inch round of #5 lead shot but with half the recoil. As you can see from the photos, it does the job from 25 yards. The harder shot doesn\u2019t deform and they use a special wad that stays with the shot charge longer, meaning tighter groups at range. However, this proved a disadvantage at short distances.<\/p>\n<p>From 15 feet, you get basically the effect of a slug. Of course, with the Cynergy\u2019s sights, your odds of a head\/neck hit are still pretty good on a standing bird.\u00a0 At 30 feet, a more realistic distance, you get at least some of the shot spreading enough to give you some margin for error.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d recommend this ammunition to anyone who has an aversion to recoil. It\u2019s a load you can shoot all day.<\/p>\n<p>Next up was the Federal Premium 3<sup>RD<\/sup> Degree 3 inch. These shotshells use an interesting combination for optimum performance regardless of the range. The 1 \u00be oz shot charge is made up of three different types of shot. Going from the muzzle end of the round, 20 percent of the shot is #6 lead, on top of #5 copper plated lead making up the next 40% of the shot charge, on top of the same #7 Heavyweight shot that\u2019s used in the Heavyweight Turkey above. That makes up the final 40%. The 3<sup>RD<\/sup> Degree also uses a FLIGHTCONTROL wad like the Heavyweight Turkey. At 25 yards, the pattern was a little tighter than the Heavyweight Turkey. Although my aim was off to the right, I still got plenty of shot in the center of the target. At 30 feet it performed similarly to the Heavyweight Turkey thanks to the wad staying with the shot charge longer. However, the shot spread enough to give you a nice cloud of shot around the turkey\u2019s head. The recoil was more pronounced, but still quite manageable.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_73678\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/002.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"overunder-gobbler-buster-brownings-cyngery-ultimate-turkey-shotgun-full-review\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73678\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" class=\"size-full wp-image-73678\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/002.jpg\" alt=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" width=\"950\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/002.jpg 950w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/002-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/002-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/002-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-73678\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">You can see the large load bearing surface on which the barrel monobloc hinges. The rod on the floor of the action block (there are two, one on each side) cocks the action.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The 3.5-inch version of the 3<sup>RD<\/sup> Degree ammunition performed like the 3-inch version with two notable exceptions. First, as you\u2019d expect from a shot charge weighing 2 ounces, there was more shot on target. Secondly, this sucker kicked like a mule. Not that you\u2019d be likely to notice if you had a nice Tom standing in front of you, but at the range . . . ouch! Of course, that would be mitigated somewhat in a semi-auto due to the action spreading the recoil pulse over a longer time.<\/p>\n<p>However, this is where the Inflex recoil pad earned its keep. As you know, when a shotgun recoils, it kicks back into your shoulder, at the same time the barrel rises whacking you in the cheekbone with the stock. That sometimes hurts more than your shoulder. The Inflex pad has an internal skeleton of harder material which causes the rear of the stock to move downwards, eliminating the hit to the face. It worked as advertised so I didn\u2019t get quite as beat up as I could have.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_73681\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/010.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"overunder-gobbler-buster-brownings-cyngery-ultimate-turkey-shotgun-full-review\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73681\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" class=\"size-full wp-image-73681\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/010.jpg\" alt=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" width=\"950\" height=\"562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/010.jpg 950w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/010-150x89.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/010-400x237.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/010-768x454.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-73681\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The composite stock includes an adjustable comb and a highly effective recoil pad. The ribs of the recoil pad prevent the stock from smacking your cheek bone in recoil.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Depending on your tolerance to recoil, I\u2019d recommend either of the 3<sup>RD<\/sup> Degree ammo for anyone using a single shot, bolt action, or semi-automatic shotgun. When you don\u2019t have the advantage of being able to choose your choke like you can with the Cynergy, it gives you a more flexible shot pattern to accommodate different distances.<\/p>\n<p>Call me old school, but my favorite was the 3-inch Federal Magnum Turkey Load with 1 7\/8 ozs.\u00a0 of extra hard #5 lead shot. That doesn\u2019t mean the ammunition was old school though. First Federal cushions the shot charge with a granulated buffer to minimize deformation. Then they use what they call Strut-Shock, a plastic wad with struts under the shot cup to minimize flattening of the shot at ignition. Plus, they put on the box, \u201cRemember to take a kid hunting.\u201d Gotta love that.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_73685\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/014.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"overunder-gobbler-buster-brownings-cyngery-ultimate-turkey-shotgun-full-review\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73685\" title=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" class=\"size-full wp-image-73685\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/014.jpg\" alt=\"Over\/Under Gobbler Buster: Browning\u2019s Cyngery Ultimate Turkey Shotgun \u2013 Full Review.\" width=\"950\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/014.jpg 950w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/014-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/014-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/014-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-73685\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Conditions at the range weren\u2019t as calm as this photo would suggest. A 15\u201320 mph breeze across the range kept it cool. In the box on the table, you can see two of the five Invector chokes that come with the Cynergy, plus the choke wrench.

The Marbles Arms Bullseye works great with the fiber optic at the end of the barrels. It\u2019s easy to get a good sight picture quickly.
