The Taurus Raging Hunter .44 Magnum is a six-shot hunting revolver with a ported 6.75-inch barrel in two-tone (brand part no. 2-440065RH). Taurus gives the Raging Hunter an angular barrel design that cuts weight, plus factory-tuned porting and a gas expansion chamber that reduce muzzle lift. Cushioned insert grips make it comfortable to shoot, and the adjustable rear sight lets you zero it for your load. The line won the 2019 American Hunter Handgun of the Year Golden Bullseye Award. The longer barrel adds sight radius for steadier shots.
