The Colt Anaconda Target delivers precision shooting capabilities with its match-grade 6-inch stainless steel barrel and refined trigger system. This full-size double-action revolver combines the stopping power of .44 Magnum with the accuracy demanded by competitive shooters and serious hunters.
What Makes This Different
The ventilated rib barrel design provides superior heat dissipation during extended shooting sessions while reducing barrel harmonics for consistent shot placement. Unlike standard hunting revolvers, the Target model features adjustable target sights and a refined trigger pull that breaks cleanly at approximately 8-10 pounds in double-action mode. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion in harsh weather conditions while maintaining dimensional stability across temperature extremes.
Key Features
- 6-inch ventilated rib barrel with target crown for maximum accuracy potential
- Fully adjustable rear sight with white outline and red ramp front sight
- Stainless steel frame, cylinder, and barrel construction for corrosion resistance
- Black rubber Hogue-style grips provide secure hold and recoil management
- 6-round cylinder capacity with simultaneous ejection system
- Transfer bar safety system prevents accidental discharge
- Compatible with .44 Special cartridges for reduced recoil practice
The extended sight radius of the 6-inch barrel configuration enables precise shot placement at distances exceeding 50 yards, making this revolver suitable for hunting medium to large game animals. Competition shooters benefit from the consistent lockup and smooth cylinder rotation that maintains timing through thousands of rounds. The stainless finish eliminates maintenance concerns in humid or coastal environments where blued steel would require constant attention.
