Could this be your new truck gun? Following the wild success of the Little Badger, Chiappa Firearms has now released the Big Badger to the U.S. market. The Big Badger is an oversized variant of the famous single-shot .22LR Little Badger.
Available in three caliber options—.410, .30-30, and .350 Legend—the Big Badger fills the role of popular single-shot break-actions that have in recent years become harder to find.
While similar to its predecessor, the Big Badger shows off a few unique and distinguishing characteristics that set it apart, along with increased firepower, while retaining the Badger’s signature single-shot capability.

A break-action folds the Big Badger into a convenient and compact profile for easy transport and storage. At the front of the receiver and the top of the chamber sits a Picatinny-style rail with integrated rails on the top and bottom, while the sides are endowed with M-LOK slots for additional accessory use. Just about any optic can easily be affixed to the top rail and there’s still room to spare for foregrips and lights on the bottom.
All steel rod stocks mimic an extruded wire construction with a fixed recoil-absorbing buttpad. The Big Badger’s stock is curved to mimic a rifle grip for exceptional balance and control.
The top of the stock features the welcome addition of a cheek rest, which can be adjusted depending on the shooter’s needs. All three caliber options employ a 20-inch barrel. The action opens via a trigger-shaped release, and an extractor actuates to quickly remove the spent cartridge without needing additional tools.

Big Badger’s .410 variation utilizes a smooth bore and integrated front sight post and Beretta/Benelli Mobile Choke threads, including an MC-1 modified choke.
The .30-30 contains a 1:12-twist rifled bore without a sight post, but it does include a threaded muzzle with a thread protector.
The .350 Legend variation copies the .30-30, with a threaded muzzle and protector, but its barrel features a 1:16 twist rate.
Each caliber option features a total length of 35 inches unfolded and weighs around five and a half pounds.
