Taurus has just added a modern straight-walled cartridge option to the Raging Hunter line with two new .350 Legend models.
A lot of hunters have come to enjoy .350 Legend, but as far as revolver options for the cartridge go, Smith & Wesson seemed to be the only company willing to make one with its Model 350. Until now, that is, as Taurus has just announced two new Raging Hunter options chambered for the .35-caliber straight-walled game-getter.
The two new .350 Raging Hunter models are identical except for their barrel lengths—one being 10.5 inches, and the other 14.5 inches. Whichever option you choose, it will impart more energy to the bullet than what you’d get out of Smith & Wesson’s 7.5-inch option. Other features of the .350 Legend Raging Hunters include 6-shot capacities, fiber-optic sights and Picatinny rails on the top and bottom for optics and accessories. As far as recoil mitigation goes, the revolvers also come equipped with muzzle brakes, cushioned rubber grips and non-fluted cylinders for some extra weight.
Michael Marotte, Marketing Director at Taurus, said this about the new hunting wheelguns:
Adding .350 Legend to the Raging Hunter lineup was a natural step. It gives shooters a modern, straight-walled option with the stout terminal performance they trust the series for … We kept everything that made Raging Hunter legendary — strength, reliability, and practical field features — and tuned the platform for the demands of .350 Legend loads.
MSRP for both .350 Legend Raging Hunter models is $1,534 and they’re available now.
