The Taurus Raging Hunter 460 S&W Magnum delivers maximum stopping power for serious hunters pursuing dangerous game and large predators. This heavy-duty revolver combines the raw energy of the 460 S&W cartridge with Taurus's proven revolver platform, creating a reliable hunting companion capable of taking down elk, bear, and other large game at extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard hunting revolvers chambered in lesser cartridges, the Raging Hunter harnesses the 460 S&W Magnum's impressive ballistics - generating over 2,400 foot-pounds of muzzle energy with proper ammunition. The dual-tone finish combines a matte stainless steel frame for corrosion resistance with a matte black oxide treatment on the cylinder and barrel for reduced glare during hunting situations. The integrated cushion insert grip system absorbs recoil more effectively than traditional rubber grips, allowing for faster follow-up shots with this powerful cartridge.
Key Features

Field performance centers on the cartridge's flat trajectory and devastating terminal ballistics at hunting distances. The 460 S&W Magnum maintains lethal energy beyond 200 yards, making it suitable for situations where rifle shots aren't practical. Weather-sealed construction handles moisture and temperature extremes encountered during extended hunting trips, while the revolver action provides absolute reliability regardless of ammunition type or environmental conditions.
