Browning Citori 725 field: difference in fit between 12g and 20g?

[gdawg]

Hi there - held the 12 g field in a shop the other day and was surprised how well it handled. I've always shot 686s and like them but I think the Browning might be a better fit. I'm on the hunt for an upland game gun so a 20 gauge is more of what I am after. Any one know how the 20g compares to the 12g? Does it fit pretty much the same or are there noticeable differences?
thanks

The 20 gauge has less drop at comb and drop at heel. the same as with the 12 and 20 gauge Lightnings. The 12 gauges fit me well, the 20 gauges not so well. I actually have a 12 gauge 725 Feather that has fired two shots that will be listed for sale soon.

Thanks. I'll have to try before buying then. It was the drop at the comb that I liked on the 12. Does the 12 g Feather fit the same as the non Feather?

I shouldered both the Field and the Feather, and the only difference was the weight.

One goes BANG a little louder then the other. Haha only thing I could see is a slight weight difference.

The difference in weight is very noticeable, about 15 ounces;
