The Taurus Raging Hunter in .44 Magnum is built for folks who want to chase big game with a revolver instead of a rifle. This two-tone model pairs a matte stainless frame with a blacked-out barrel shroud and cylinder, giving it a mean, purposeful look that still handles like a well-balanced field gun. The 8.37-inch ported barrel sends a 6-round cylinder of .44 Magnum downrange, and it'll happily run .44 Special too if you want to practice without the full thump. Winner of the 2019 American Hunter Handgun of the Year Golden Bullseye Award, the Raging Hunter earned its reputation on innovation and dependability.
The barrel is the real story here. Taurus went with a two-piece design, sliding a stainless steel barrel inside a lightweight aluminum shroud. That cuts weight and shifts the balance back toward your hand, so this big wheelgun doesn't feel nose-heavy the way a lot of long-barreled hunting revolvers do. Even loaded up, it tips the scales around 55 ounces, and that heft works in your favor when you touch off a hot magnum load.
Between the factory-tuned porting, a gas-expansion chamber that bleeds off muzzle rise, and a rubber grip with a cushioned backstrap insert, this revolver stays surprisingly civil for the power it puts out. You stay on target for faster follow-up shots, which matters when you're hunting. The eight small ports, four per side, keep the muzzle flat without turning the gun into a flash and blast machine.
You get a fixed Patridge-style front blade paired with a fully adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation, so it's dialed in right out of the box with irons. Running along the top of the barrel is an integral Picatinny rail with plenty of slots, giving you room to mount a red dot or a magnified handgun scope. A transfer bar safety and dual cylinder lockup round out a revolver that's ready for serious field work, and this DLX package ships in a soft zippered case.
Yes. It comes with an integral Picatinny rail running along the top of the barrel, giving you plenty of slots to mount a red dot or a magnified handgun scope. You also get usable iron sights with a fixed front blade and a fully adjustable rear, so you can run it either way.
It can. The cylinder is chambered for .44 Magnum but will also fire the shorter .44 Special cartridge. That's a handy option for lower-recoil practice or plinking before you load up with full-power hunting rounds.
For a big-bore magnum, it's very manageable. The factory-tuned porting and gas-expansion chamber knock down muzzle rise, the 55-ounce weight soaks up a lot of the push, and the rubber grip with its cushioned insert takes the sting out of hotter loads. Most people find it noticeably more comfortable than other revolvers in this caliber.
Taurus uses a two-piece design with a stainless steel barrel sleeved inside a lightweight aluminum shroud. That construction trims weight and pulls the balance back toward your hand, so the gun doesn't feel front-heavy despite the long 8.37-inch barrel. It makes a difference when you're carrying it in the field all day.
