I have a chance to pick up a new Raging Bull blued with 6" barrel at a special sale my local dealer is having. This revolver has always been a temptation for me and with the price that is available I am thinking now is the time. But, even though I have had multiple SW revos in .38 special, .357 and .45acp, (snubbies, 3" barrels, 4" barrels, 625s, 686, 66, 28, 36 even a custom 686 7" and a 19 ppc revolver) I have never had a Taurus nor a .44 mag.
My interest is simply range fun, blasting plates at 50-100 yds. Will I find the Raging Bull easy to handle? I hear it really tames recoil. I am a mid size guy, 5' 9" 178#.....but the revolver balances very well in my hands and I have no problem with the sights, even with my tired eyes.
Oh, I also have been through all the threads that question Taurus quality, etc....and I know the risk....but the RB is supposed to be their flagship revolver.
And I should mention that ammo cost is not going to kill me....I have a local reloader who can keep me in fresh 200gr TCJ .44 mag for the price of .17 HMR
Sorry about the long "Question" but I got this Raging Bull itch and it may be time to scratch it!
