I don't like my 20 year old Browning Citori and it mainly collects dust in the safe. I love my Beretta 686 and have been hunting with it for 14 years now. It cost $1,100 back when I bought it. One caveat is that I haven't been hunting with it much lately because I also have a couple Beretta 391's now and a Benelli SBE.

One thing that I really like about the Beretta over the Browning is the ease of cleaning. The Browning has too many little parts everywhere in the receiver. Granted, over 20 years they might have changed the design. Plus, for about the same money I got a much better gun. I bought the target version 686 because I hate the field version with the automatic safety every time you crack open the barrel. Both the 686 and Citori have a barrel selector.
