At $2000.00 or more, depending on the retailer, how does the Crossover fit into the entry level O/U category? Perhaps Mossberg, Baikal, CZ and a few others can meet the criteria, but I humbly beg to differ with your assessment...
Target guns are in a different class, as they are meant to stand up to many thousands of rounds per year, for year after year. The Crossover is one of the entry level target guns that will actually stand up to high volume shooting, and will actually still be useable after 100,000 rounds. Which of the other guns you mention, do you think will still be useable after 100,000 rounds?

I've had my 725 Sporting for about 6 months now, nice gun. I don't shoot it better than my 30 year old SKB, but that's just me. I've converted the ejectors to extractors, I never did see the appeal of ejectors in any break-action shotgun. The 725 definitely has a different feel from any other Citori I've looked at. Very good balance, weight more between my hands.
