I just picked this up the other day for a real good price! Its a 454 Taurus Raging Bull Stainless Steel with a 8" barrell.
Ive got a lot of work to do to it before I get it like I want it.

Ive got a 2X7X32mm scope coming for it and I need to get it blued or some kind of dark coating on it for hunting, and change the grip to a Hogue.

The brass shell is a 45 cal Long Colt, and the silver one is a 300grain 454 hollow point.
Ive put about 50 rounds through it so far, and five of those were shot with one hand.........................Look out hogs!
