The Taurus Raging Hunter in .460 S&W Magnum is a heavy-duty hunting revolver with an 8.37-inch ported barrel, 5-round capacity, and a two-tone matte black oxide and black anodized finish. At 57 oz (3.56 lbs), it's a field gun intended for big game rather than everyday carry. The dual lockup cylinder locks at both the front and rear of the cylinder for added stability during firing.

Detailed Features 

The 8.37-inch barrel increases muzzle velocity over shorter-barreled revolvers and extends the sight radius. Barrel porting cuts muzzle rise, which matters when you're firing a cartridge as powerful as the .460 S&W. The integrated Picatinny rail accepts a scope or red dot for precision at hunting distances. The rubber grip with a cushion insert absorbs some of the felt recoil, though .460 S&W still hits hard regardless of grip design. 
 

Usage Scenarios 

1. Hunting: The .460 S&W cartridge is enough for large North American game; the long barrel and optics rail support accurate shots at field distances. 
2. Outdoor Recreation / Field Carry: At 57 oz, it's holster territory for trail use. 
3. Range Use: A capable platform for handgun hunters who practice at distance.

Sentiment on the Raging Hunter .460 runs along predictable lines for a large-bore hunting revolver.

Positive Sentiments:
Owners drawn to the .460 S&W caliber generally get what they expected: substantial stopping power and the option to also fire .454 Casull and .45 Colt from the same cylinder. The two-tone finish gets favorable comments on appearance. Shooters praise accuracy at distance, particularly when using the Picatinny rail with an optic. The rubber grip with cushion insert helps tame some felt recoil.

Negative Feedback:
Weight is the most consistent complaint. At 57 oz, it becomes tiring to carry all day on a hunt. Recoil with full-power .460 S&W loads is significant, and most owners recommend it only for experienced shooters comfortable with magnum-class handguns. Quality control concerns come up in a portion of reviews, with some owners reporting fit-and-finish or mechanical issues, which is a recurring thread in discussions about Taurus generally. Feelings toward Taurus as a brand remain mixed compared to other revolver makers.
