Description
The Browning Cynergy Wicked Wing 12ga 30in O/U Shotgun is built for hunters who demand concealment, durability, and a fast-handling platform in varied field conditions. This over/under shotgun pairs a low-profile receiver with a Mossy Oak Original Shadowgrass synthetic stock and Burnt Bronze Cerakote metal finish, giving you serious stealth and weather resistance. Chambered for 3.5-inch shells and fitted with extended Invector-Plus Goose Band choke tubes, it delivers the pattern control you need for waterfowl, upland, or turkey hunts. Adjustable comb and Inflex recoil pad let you dial in fit and reduce felt recoil. At $2,414.09, this is a purpose-built scattergun that earns its place in your safe.

Key Features
- Ultra-Low Profile Receiver – Lowers the bore axis to reduce muzzle jump, so you stay on target for quick follow-up shots.
- Burnt Bronze Cerakote Finish – Corrosion-resistant coating that holds up against saltwater, mud, and heavy rain, meaning less maintenance and longer life.
- Mossy Oak Original Shadowgrass Camo Stock – Breaks up your outline in marsh, timber, and field edges, giving you an edge on wary birds.
- Inflex Recoil Pad with Adjustable Comb – Lets you customize drop and cast for a perfect cheek weld while the pad soaks up recoil from 3.5-inch magnum loads.
- Extended Invector-Plus Goose Band Choke Tubes – Three included chokes (Full, Modified, Improved Cylinder) give you pattern flexibility for decoying geese or pass-shooting ducks.
Who It’s For
This shotgun is for the dedicated waterfowler or upland hunter who spends long days in wet, dirty cover and needs a gun that won’t rust or glare. It’s also a solid choice for the shooter who wants an adjustable, low-recoil platform without dropping $4,000 on a custom-fit O/U. If you run a layout blind, pit, or marsh boat, the Wicked Wing’s camo and Cerakote will keep you hidden and protected.
Pros & Cons
Pros:
– Low bore axis makes it swing fast and point naturally.
– 3.5-inch chamber handles everything from light target loads to heavy goose shells.
– Adjustable comb is a huge plus for dialing in fit without a gunsmith.
– Mossy Oak Shadowgrass blends into more environments than you’d expect.
Cons:
– The synthetic stock can feel a bit slick when wet or gloved; a little Talon grip or a stock wrap solves it.

The Cynergy Wicked Wing offers an adjustable comb and Cerakote finish that the Benelli 828U lacks at a lower price point. The Winchester SX4 is cheaper but is a semi-auto, not an O/U, and doesn’t give you the same low-profile handling or corrosion resistance.
FAQ
What choke tubes come with the Browning Cynergy Wicked Wing?
It ships with three extended Invector-Plus Goose Band choke tubes: Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder. These are specifically designed for steel shot and heavy payloads. You can swap them without tools.
Does this shotgun come with a case?
No, the Wicked Wing does not include a hard or soft case. It ships in a cardboard box with the choke tubes and manual. You’ll want to pick up a good padded case for transport and storage.
Can I use standard Invector-Plus chokes in this gun?
Yes, standard Invector-Plus chokes work, but the Goose Band tubes are extended and ported for tighter patterns at longer ranges. If you shoot steel, stick with the included tubes or other Invector-Plus steel-rated chokes.
Is the stock adjustable for cast and drop?
Yes, the adjustable comb allows you to change drop from 1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inches and cast up to 1/4 inch left or right. You’ll need a hex wrench (included) to make adjustments.
How does the Burnt Bronze Cerakote hold up to saltwater?
Per Browning specs, Cerakote is highly corrosion-resistant and holds up well in saltwater environments. Rinse the gun with fresh water after a day in the marsh and dry it, and the finish will last for years without rust or peeling.
