Description
There is something special about running the sub-gauge events with a gun that was built for the job instead of adapted to it. The Rizzini BR240 Sporting in .410 bore is exactly that kind of gun. B. Rizzini positioned the BR240 between the BR110 and the flagship BR460 in their competition lineup, and it shows in the details: a refined boxlock action, automatic ejectors, a crisp single selective trigger, and the kind of fit and finish Brescia gunmakers have built their reputation on.
Why the BR240 Sporting Works in .410
The .410 version rides on a 28 gauge action, so the frame stays trim and lively instead of feeling like a big-bore gun wearing skinny barrels. The 32" nickel chrome steel barrels give you the long sighting plane and smooth, deliberate swing that sporting clays reward, while the tapered top rib and white front bead keep your eye moving to the target. Five nickel-coated flush choke tubes come standard, so you can tighten up for a long crosser or open things up for close skeet-style presentations. That versatility carries over nicely to the quail woods and dove field too.
Rizzini Craftsmanship You Can See and Feel
The stock is Grade 2.5 Turkish walnut cut with 26 lines-per-inch checkering on both the pistol grip and the rounded forend, and the receiver wears tasteful engraving accented with the BR240 logo in gold. It is a clean, classic look that stands out on the rack without shouting. Underneath the good looks, the locking bolt engages on low lugs for a strong, low-profile lockup that should hold tight through many thousands of rounds.
Who Should Pick Up This BR240
If you shoot sub-gauge sporting clays, skeet doubles, or just love the challenge of breaking birds with the little bore, this is a serious tool rather than a novelty. The .410 demands precise gun handling, and the BR240's balance and long barrels make that job noticeably easier. It is also a gun you will be proud to pull out of the case at any club, with the pedigree and build quality to back it up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Rizzini BR240 Sporting in .410 built on a smaller frame?
Yes. Rizzini builds the .410 version of the BR240 on a 28 gauge action rather than a full-size frame. That keeps the gun slim and well balanced, which matters a lot when you pair it with 32" barrels for clays work.
What choke tubes come with the BR240 Sporting?
It ships with five nickel-coated flush-fit choke tubes. That range covers everything from close skeet presentations to longer sporting clays targets, and it works fine for upland birds if you want to take it hunting.
Does the BR240 have ejectors or extractors?
The BR240 features automatic ejectors, so fired hulls kick clear when you break the action while unfired shells are simply lifted for easy removal. Combined with the single selective trigger, it has the full competition-grade feature set you would expect at this level.
Why choose 32" barrels on a .410 sporting gun?
Longer barrels add weight up front and extend your sighting plane, which smooths out your swing and helps you stay on line through the shot. Since the .410 leaves little margin for error, that steadier swing is a real advantage on clays courses. Many sub-gauge competitors prefer 32" for exactly this reason.
