Zenith black edition. Elegance and refinement.
Breda breaks into the market with a really new shotgun, designed and produced without compromise with the advice of the best specialists in the sector.
Zenith is born for shooting and competitions.
Several of the best professionals contributed to setting the stocks, the position of the shouldering, the weights, the technical peculiarity of the barrels, the balance of the shotgun, the shots, the adjustments and all the technical details that led Zenith to be a real revolution in the world of over&under shotguns.
Zenith also stands out for its aesthetics, which offers a unique engraving with a modern style whose design was entrusted to the master engraver Dario Cortini, who created the most important engravings for Breda top range products.
The leitmotiv of the new over&under is innovation, starting from the theme of engraving never used in the past, to arrive at the high-tech element represented by the internal profile of the barrels: subjected to a meticulous polishing process and associated with a junction cone of 90 mm results in an extremely precise barrel with well distributed patterns and a mitigated recoil for better shooting stability also in case of doubled shot. The drilling chosen for the Zenith barrels is 18.60 mm.
Zenith has been designed with all the due specifications to meet the needs of the TRAP and SPORTING worlds.
The over & under for Trap is a specific, professional tool, born for this discipline from every point of view. The optimal balance, the constant shots, the fast and precise wielding are essential conditions for a trap over & under.
Zenith breaks into the world of Trap with a slim line, very thin thanks to a low profile obtained with a deep engineering design work.
With its center of gravity perfectly positioned, Zenith gives the shooter the feeling of being a natural extension of his body.
