Detailed Features 

 
The charcoal gray composite stock has textured gripping surfaces and an adjustable comb, letting shooters set cheek weld height without a gunsmith. The three-position trigger system lets you adjust trigger reach to fit different hand sizes. Three extended Midas Grade choke tubes (Full, Modified, Improved Cylinder) are included. 
 
The silver nitride receiver finish resists corrosion well. Ivory bead front and mid-bead rear sights work in low-light conditions where a plain bead can disappear against gray sky. At 7.12 lbs the gun is manageable for extended clay sessions without being so light it bounces on heavy loads. 
 

Usage Scenarios: 

• Upland bird hunting where the composite stock handles weather without needing oil 
• Sporting clays and trap shooting where the adjustable comb pays off 
• Field use in wet conditions where a walnut stock would need more care

The Cynergy CX Composite gets consistent positive feedback for its synthetic stock and the adjustability it provides. Shooters who move between hunting and clay sports appreciate the adjustable comb and the three-position trigger. The charcoal gray finish is described as looking more refined than typical black synthetics.

Performance is generally praised. The action cycles smoothly and the shot patterns are consistent. Recoil is noted as more pronounced than some shooters expected, particularly with heavier 3-inch loads, which a few reviewers flag as a consideration.

Price is the main friction point. Most buyers in this category accept it as the cost of Browning fit and finish on a synthetic-stocked field gun. Some feel the Cynergy CX Composite's price premium over more basic composite over-unders isn't fully justified for casual use.
