Recently bought the Raging Bull 454 because I liked the looks. I liked the top rib reminiscent of the colt pythons and the heavy lug barrel. The good points, nice grip, nice finish, no muzzle lift when firing. The bad, the front sight is hard to see against a target, should have a fiber optic. Don\'t care for the multiple cylinder release buttons, they should have just one like most other guns. Worst point, the cylinder seized after just three shots. Upon close inspection I\'ve determined that there is not enough gap between the bullet case at the primer end and the metal landing of the cylinder where the cylinder rotator teeth are cut. This lack of gap prevents some bullets from seating into the cylinder completely then they become jammed against the frame when the cylinder rotates. I will be sending the Raging Bull back to Taurus to address this condition. Sorry to say this cylinder seizing condition is a major downer because I liked the gun for the most part but the engineers need to take a closer look at the cylinder design.

Great experience with Bucks Gun Shop!
I'm happy with the Raging Bull. Great feel, grip and balance.
I didn't read close enough, as I thought it was polished stainless steel, not matte. A bummer, but not a deal breaker. Happy you can shoot 45 long colt. As the .454 casull isn't available everywhere and its pricey.

Just purchased this from Buds great gun and great service A++. I've already ran 150rds through mine with no problems was a little hard extracting Hornandy and Magtech at first but I think it just needed a good cleaning being new.

Great gun. First Taurus I've owned and I am very pleased. I have heard nothing but bad reviews about Taurus but to this point I can't complain. Awesome gun to shoot. First purchase with buds and I have since purchased more guns from this site. Great prices.

This gun is massive and constructed very well, with an extremely smooth trigger pull as well as very close tolerance for the cylinder lockup, excellent workmanship, not a blemish on it! I’ve shot 5 boxes of Hornady 240 gr XTP Mag and 5 boxes of the 300 gr XTP Mag through it without any issues! Bud’s, as always, was Great, processing and shipping was flawless and fast!

Great looking gun. Came in perfect condition. Took it to the gun range and put in 20 rounds. Used the Winchester Super X 250 grain and recoil was not bad at all. Good shooting gun. Very well built. Would recommend to anyone.

This 454 was shipped within a day or so to my FFL, apon receiving it I could not wait to fire it! Went to the range shot five rounds and I could not empty spent brass from the cylinder as they were all stuck .....? I called Taurus and they sent fedex over to pick it up free of charge! They said in approximately 2 weeks it will be fixed and returned, after a month I called and the representative said it was sent off to be destroyed. I was informed they would be sending me a new replacement 454.......two weeks later still nothing from Taurus! I have spoken to several representatives and even the person in charge of the department and I just can't seem to get anywhere with this!!! Had I not have had this issue I would have left a 5 star review probably but I guess I'm in the middle on this one as I don't have a working firearm in my possession after spending $800 on the gun and transfer fees from my ffl!!
