The rear sight is adjustable for windage and elevation. A transfer bar safety prevents discharge if the gun is dropped. The matte finish cuts down on glare in the field. ### Usage The barrel length and caliber make it a natural fit for handgun hunting of larger game. It's also used for range work where the long barrel aids accuracy. At 6.6 lbs it's not a light carry, so it's better thought of as a field or bench gun than an everyday carry option. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Q: What caliber is the Raging Hunter?** A: The Raging Hunter is chambered in .44 Magnum. **Q: What is the barrel length of the Raging Hunter?** A: It has an 8.4-inch barrel. **Q: How many rounds does the Raging Hunter hold?** A: The cylinder holds 6 rounds. **Q: Who makes the Raging Hunter?** A: The Raging Hunter is made by Taurus. **Q: What type of firearm is the Raging Hunter?** A: It is a single/double action revolver with a matte black anodized finish. **Q: Where can I buy the Raging Hunter?** A: Compare current vendor offers on this page. ## What Reviewers Say *Quoted verbatim from YouTube reviews.

Owners who bought it for hunting praise the power and accuracy at distance, and most find the rubber grip with cushion insert keeps recoil manageable given the caliber. Build quality generally draws positive comments, and the adjustable rear sight is appreciated for dialing in loads at different distances. The weight, 6.6 lbs, is the most common gripe. It's not a problem at the range or carried in a chest holster while hunting, but it draws complaints from anyone who expected something easier to pack. Recoil is real with full-power .44 Magnum loads; shooters new to the caliber sometimes find it more than expected. A recurring quality-control concern involves cylinder alignment and trigger pull consistency, not universal, but it shows up often enough in owner discussions to be worth noting when buying. Long-term durability questions come up alongside those reports. ## Pricing **5 offers available** | Vendor | Price | |--------|-------| | Kygunco Com | $848.78 | | Primaryarms Com | $849.99 | | Impactguns Com | $887.19 | | Gritrsports Com | $889.99 | | Guns Com | $934.99 | ## Reviews **Average Rating:** 4.0/5 (1 reviews) > **drew49** (4/5): This revolver is a beast and seems to favor Hornady 300-grain XTP after about 75 rounds. The trigger feels much like a mil-spec AR trigger, though, and mine also arrived without the red grip cushion. ... ## Similar Products - [Taurus Raging Hunter .44 Magnum 8.4" Barrel Revolver](https://gunsnation.com/p/taurus-raging-hunter-44-magnum-8-4-barrel-revolver/UCClj6l1Z) - [Taurus Raging Hunter Gen 2 .44 Mag Revolver, 8.37" SS Precision Power](https://gunsnation.com/p/taurus-raging-hunter-gen-2-44-mag-revolver-8-37-ss-precision-power/UCClj85CU) - [Taurus Raging Hunter .357 Mag Revolver - 8.4" Barrel, 7rd Capacity](https://gunsnation.com/p/taurus-raging-hunter-357-mag-revolver-8-4-barrel-7rd-capacity/UCClj6lSD) - [Taurus Raging Hunter .44 Magnum Revolver with Cushioned Grip](https://gunsnation.com/p/taurus-raging-hunter-44-magnum-revolver-with-cushioned-grip/UCClj6lQj) - [Taurus Raging Hunter .44 Magnum Revolver - 8.37" Precision Barrel, Black](https://gunsnation.com/p/taurus-raging-hunter-44-magnum-revolver-8-37-precision-barrel-black/UCClj6kvP) - [Taurus Raging Hunter - .44 Magnum Revolver Matte Stainless Finish](https://gunsnation.com/p/taurus-raging-hunter-44-magnum-revolver-matte-stainless-finish/UCClj6lR7) --- *Data from [GunsNation](https://gunsnation.com)*
