• Proprietary, first of its kind muzzle brake reduces muzzle flip and felt recoil 25 percent more than conventional barrel ports.
• Fiber-optic front and rear sights are perfect for rapid target acquisition.
• Taurus’ double lock system keeps the cylinder secure when firing the heaviest of magnums.
• 10.5-inch Raging Hunter uses a bottom rail to attach bipods or other shooting aids

• Top Picatinny rail provides an excellent optic mounting platform.
