Over/Unders: Caesar Guerini, Ruger, Browning, & Winchester

This over/under match-up has a distinctly international taste to it. We recently pitted a Belgium-made gun with an American name—the Winchester 101—against the all-American Ruger Red Label engraved model, the increasingly popular Caesar Guerini representing the Italian trigger-plate actions, and Browning's most recent stackbarrel, the Japanese-made Browning-branded Cynergy. All are marketed as general-purpose models suitable for hunting and casual clays use.

Top to bottom are our over/under players: The most expensive gun in the test was the Caesar Guerini Tempio, $3195, sporting a low-profile receiver and Bulino-style gold game scenes. The Browning Cynergy Euro Field 3-inch 12 Gauge No. 013297304, $2609, sports a low-profile modern design. The smallest price tag, $1739, came on the Winchester Model 101 Field No. 513046361 3-inch 12 gauge. It is Belgium-made by F.N. At bottom was the Ruger Red Label Engraved No. KRL-1227-BRE 3-Inch 12 gauge, $2180, which comes with scroll-engraving and gold-inlaid pheasants on the stainless receiver.
