The Taurus Raging Hunter is a double action/single action revolver chambered in .44 Magnum, designed for handgun hunting and field use. Built on a large frame, the Raging Hunter features a gas port system integrated into the barrel shroud that vents propellant gases upward to reduce muzzle rise during firing, a significant benefit when shooting full power .44 Magnum loads. The revolver uses a two piece frame construction with the barrel shroud serving as a rigid housing that encloses the barrel and incorporates a full length Picatinny rail along the top for mounting optics. The cylinder uses dual cylinder release latches, one positioned forward of the cylinder and one to the rear, providing a more rigid lockup under the pressures generated by .44 Magnum cartridges. The Raging Hunter is equipped with a transfer bar safety mechanism, a micrometer click adjustable rear sight, and a blade front sight. The trigger guard is oversized to accommodate gloved hands, and the revolver is fitted with a factory cushioned rubber grip with Taurus medallions.

This example features an 8.375 inch ported barrel with a two tone finish consisting of a matte OD green frame and barrel shroud paired with a black cylinder and black controls. Accompanied by a nylon carrying case and two speed loaders.
