The Taurus Raging Hunter is not merely a firearm; it is an award-winning testament to innovation and reliability, having earned the 2019 American Hunter Handgun of the Year Golden Bullseye Award. Designed with serious handgun enthusiasts and hunters in mind, this revolver delivers on all fronts.
At its core, the Raging Hunter is a six-shot .44 Magnum built for those who seek excellence in short- to mid-range big-game hunting. The angular barrel design reduces weight without compromising strength, making it more manageable during extended use in the field. Notably, its sleeved barrel construction houses factory-tuned porting alongside a gas-expansion chamber that significantly mitigates recoil and muzzle lift—features that make follow-up shots swift and precise.
This large-frame revolver boasts a substantial yet balanced feel with its 6.75-inch barrel while maintaining an overall length of 12.60 inches and weighing in at 53 ounces. These dimensions are thoughtfully paired with ergonomic cushioned insert grips designed for comfort under prolonged shooting sessions or adverse conditions.
Visually striking, the Taurus Raging Hunter comes available in either Matte Black or Two Tone finishes—the latter combining matte black with stainless steel accents for an aesthetic as robust as its performance capabilities.
In terms of functionality, it features adjustable rear sights coupled with fixed front sights to ensure accuracy remains uncompromised across various distances. The action type offers both double-action/single-action (DA/SA) versatility supported by a transfer bar safety mechanism—a crucial feature ensuring safe handling practices are maintained at all times.
