Build quality draws consistent praise. Rizzini has a solid reputation for Italian gunmaking and the Rhino Express reflects that. Fit, finish, and overall construction are cited frequently as highlights. Accuracy and shot regulation (how closely the two barrels converge at hunting distances) get positive mentions from buyers who have taken it to the range. Ergonomics discussion varies. Shooters coming from bolt-actions find the side-by-side format takes adjustment, particularly in regard to trigger reach on a double trigger. Weight distribution and balance at 9.60 lbs are generally considered appropriate for the caliber, though some find extended carry tiring. Two recurring practical notes: .416 Rigby ammunition is not always easy to source and tends to be expensive, which matters for practice and load development. And the price of the rifle itself is high. Buyers acknowledge this but tend to view it as appropriate for an Italian-made double rifle at this specification. The rifle is bought by hunters planning dangerous game trips or collectors interested in this category of firearm. Both groups are generally satisfied with the purchase. ## Pricing **9 offers available** | Vendor | Price | |--------|-------| | Buds Gun Shop | $13439.99 | | Kygunco Com | $13464.88 | | Grabagun Com | $13519.99 | | Deguns | $14444.99 | | Impactguns Com | $14995.00 | | Shootingsurplus Com | $14995.00 | | Selwayarmory Com | $14995.00 | | Globalordnance Com | $14995.00 | | Palmettostatearmory Com | $14995.99 | ## Similar Products - [Rizzini Rhino Express .500 Nitro SxS Rifle - 26" Barrel Elegance](https://gunsnation.com/p/rizzini-rhino-express-500-nitro-sxs-rifle-26-barrel-elegance/UCF1XlxHs) - [Rizzini Rhino Express .470 Nitro Break Action Rifle - 1st Gen](https://gunsnation.com/p/rizzini-rhino-express-470-nitro-break-action-rifle-1st-gen/UCF1XlxD8) - [Rizzini Artemis 20GA Over-Under Shotgun with](https://gunsnation.com/p/rizzini-artemis-20ga-over-under-shotgun-with/UCF1Xl60n) - [Rizzini Venus 12GA Ladies Sporter Shotgun - Elegant Ergonomics](https://gunsnation.com/p/rizzini-venus-12ga-ladies-sporter-shotgun-elegant-ergonomics/UCF1XllsA) - [Rizzini BR110 Sporter 12G Over-Under Shotgun](https://gunsnation.com/p/rizzini-br110-sporter-12g-over-under-shotgun/UCF1XjRJy) - [Rizzini S2000 Elite 12GA O/U Shotgun - Engraved Walnut Masterpiece](https://gunsnation.com/p/rizzini-s2000-elite-12ga-o-u-shotgun-engraved-walnut-masterpiece/UCF1XlbT4) --- *Data from [GunsNation](https://gunsnation.com)*
