Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Cortona Grande Sporting by F.A.I.R. is a purpose-built over/under, break-action shotgun tailored for the demanding world of sporting clays, where consistency, adaptability, and precision are key to performance. Chambered in 20 gauge with 2 ¾" chambers and fitted with long 32-inch ventilated, ribbed, and ported barrels, the shotgun is designed to deliver smooth, controlled swings and reduced muzzle rise for rapid target acquisition and follow-through. The porting also helps mitigate recoil, making it more comfortable during long sessions of clay shooting. Its coin-finished receiver contrasts elegantly with the matte black barrel, while the inclusion of multiple choke tubes allows shooters to fine-tune their patterns depending on target distance and presentation, giving the Grande Sporting a high degree of versatility. A fiber optic front sight ensures fast target alignment, and the adjustable trigger provides a crisp, personalized break. The Anson push-button forend release further adds a touch of refinement and functionality, in keeping with the shotgun’s sporting pedigree. Aesthetically, the Cortona Grande Sporting strikes a balance between understated elegance and functional enhancements. The checkered walnut pistol grip stock and forearm not only add traditional beauty but also provide a secure, ergonomic hold for competitive shooting. The receiver is distinguished by tasteful gold inlaid sporting clays motifs, which celebrate the gun’s competitive heritage while adding subtle artistry. The combination of Italian craftsmanship from F.A.I.R.—renowned for its precision and reliability—and features designed specifically for high-level clay shooters ensures the Grande Sporting is both visually striking and mechanically superior. Appreciated by enthusiasts for its artistry and valued by competitors for its balance, shootability, and adaptability, the Cortona Grande Sporting represents a refined union of form and function in the sporting clays world.
