Choose the i530 for the same lofts for less, bought used, since PING now makes it only as fill-in or replacement clubs.
Choose the i540 for a whole set built to order or the longer long irons.
The i540 replaced the i530 as PING's players distance iron, and both score 2 of 5. By PING's tables they share every loft (a 29° 7-iron), every lie and every bounce; the i540's 4-, 5- and 6-irons are longer, and its offset at the 7-iron is 2.5 mm against 3.0 mm. Both are built for distance from a compact head and give less help on a mishit than PING's G-series irons.
PING's players distance iron before the i540: a compact, blade-style hollow head with a forged face, 3.0 mm of offset at the 7-iron and a 29° 7-iron, the same loft as the i540's. It gives less help on a mishit than PING's G-series heads.
A players distance iron with a forged face, a narrow sole and 2.5 mm of offset at the 7-iron, built for speed. It gives less help on a mishit than PING's G-series heads.

Neither is the forgiving iron of its maker: both are players' distance irons, the class between a game improvement iron and a players' iron, and both score 2 of 5 here.
Neither is PING's forgiving iron, and the i540 forgives a little more: it is a players' distance iron, 2 of 5 here, where the i240 is a compact players' iron, 1 of 5, the lowest of any set we score.
