Taurus Tracker 44 magnum: Stop 🛑 before you spend good money watch this range video!!

[@kentonhammond8938]

I have a rare Taurus Tracker in .45 Colt in brushed stainless. They only made them for 1-2 yrs. Mine has a 4" barrel & I liked it so much and the .45 Colt round I went to try and buy the 2" version for concealed carry, .... but Noooo. I even called Taurus & the guy said, "just as soon as we quit making something people want it,.. when it wasn't selling good !" So I never found one in a 2". I love my Tracker in .45 Colt,....America's caliber.

You could get some pretty nice 45 colt from Underwood loaded a 255gr semi wadcutter at 1000fps!!! You'll probably be around 900fps out of your tracker.

I bought one of these before the Judge came out to run snake shot in the field. As a handloader I run ammo that replicates the performance of a 44-40. Very accurate and very pleasant. But running full bore loads was just too painful!!! The trigger guard would bite my knuckle hard enough to bruise it after just 3 shots! I considered getting rid of it until a friend suggested changing the grip. A Hogue grip was $19 so I tried it. Day and night difference!!!!! The Hogue has more rubber running down the trigger guard so there’s no more bite! Just for comparison purposes in 1992 I bought a Colt 6” Custom Anaconda. Custom meaning it was pulled off the assembly line, mag-na-ported and run through the custom shop for trigger work. Needless to say it’s exquisite!! But after acquiring a digital trigger gauge I tested the two 44s and clearly the Taurus has a better trigger!!! Not just in pound weight but the double action is noticeable smoother!!! I can imagine how good this gun would be with some fine trigger work!

The porting helps with the felt recoil and muzzle rise. Mine came with the older "ribber" style grips...not a fan of the feel of it but honestly it does cushion the recoil more than the Hogue grips I bought for it. I was surprised to hear about your front sight. Mine is painted orange. Very fun shooter, bought it for no particular reason than I just wanted a good, cheap 44 in my wheel gun collection.

[@GSquaredTactical]

Yeah I could tell it was a sticker when I was doing the tabletop. Now I would have never imagined it would have came off. I painted it white but will probably paint it orange when I find some orange paint. Recoil is very controllable for such a well balanced gun. It doesn’t shot like a cheap gun.

I have a stainless version and the front sight is still as it came... I agree about the recoil. I've shot mine with full house loads and they feel like medium loads to me. I think the comp ports make a huge difference. I really like mine. Once I dialed my sights in, mine shot good. I had no trouble hitting my target at 25 yards. It is a handful for sure though. I just loaded up some lighter loads with coated cast 240 grain bullets from Missouri Bullet going 1100 fps (book). I'm looking forward to trying those. I'm expecting it to be relatively soft shooting - and hoping they are accurate.

Been shooting 44 mags with heavy handloads since 74? To many rounds to count. But.... anyone who tells you they are not affected by recoil is kidding themselves. These days that is around 50 rounds from a 44 mag. Always good to shoot a 22 for a bit at that point. Waste of lead and powder once you start flinching.

I just started watching this. I have one of these - mine is stainless. I have not had any problems with mine. I would ask if you sighted this in on paper before you started shooting? I was able to find some Black Hills ammo with 240 grain XTP bullets. About 1250 fps I guess - and it shot just fine. The recoil is significant for sure. It does make it challenging to shoot double action for sure. Ah, so you're adjusting the sights... so no you didn't sight it in. So missing the targets initially just mean nothing really. Then I see that you were able to hit reliably after the sight adjustment. Trey... no comment. lol

[@erictrippe2778]

Just FYI gents...That is not a pistol. It is a revolver...

[@GSquaredTactical]

Thank you for the clarification

[@mkshffr4936]

It is a revolving pistol. There were calling them pistols long before the 1911 was a gleam in John Moses's eye.

I want to tell you your video shows good country boys being mighty nice and helpful, proof your folks did a good job of rearing you up. Now, about those rude city boys dissing you like they were, shame on them and they can go sit in the corner with their nose in a circle on the blackboard of your outdoor classroom until they’re humbled enough to say they’re sorry. Their folks failed to teach ‘em southern hospitality and manners to match. Illegitimi Non Carborundum - Latin for don’t let the bastards wear you down lol.

[@GSquaredTactical]

The thing is our channel Covenant so to speak says…”Just “good ole boys talking about God and Guns.” We aren’t gun snobs we are doing what 1000’s of people all over this great nation do everyday. Shooting guns and talking about it period. I mean the way I see it is we saved everyone some ammo by showing them the weapon will run and they can be confident in buying it lol.

Real life situation Pulls back hammer lines shot up for 6 seconds and misses Hopefully you won’t have a real life situation

[@GSquaredTactical]

👍🏻

[@DemonratsRevil]

Gotta love hearing people talk about how certain ammo is crap but they can’t hit a plate at 15 yards lol. 100 percent of ammo is more accurate than 99 percent of shooters. Even people who consider themselves “shooters” usually shoot a pistol from 20 yards and in. Hell 10 yards and in a lot of times. I feel like I’m wasting ammo if I’m not at least 40 or 50 yards out. Get good at 60 yards and “self defense” range is an actual joke.

in a real life situation you will not have time to thumb that hammer back each time

[@rockie307]

Most people have the ability in most real life instances to pull the hammer back. People been pulling hammers back working levers, pumps and bolt actions for ever. It's all about training and habits. Check out Bob munden for example.

[@GSquaredTactical]

1000% correct sir I will pull my hammer back if at all possible. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already. Thanks again

[@mkshffr4936]

I think it depends on the situation. I think most of the time that you would not have time to thumb the hammer back will be a very close range situation where the DA pull is not much of an issue. Keep in mind that thumbing a hammer is no slower than thumbing a safety.

[@davidchrist428]

This gun is trash. I have sent mine back twice, the third time they are sending me a new one. The frame bent and was so out of whack the gun could have exploded. This gun cannot even shoot heavy 44 mag loads, what does that tell you? Why have a magnum when all it really shoots is 44 special. When I get the brand new one back, it has been 5 weeks, I plan on selling it for around 200.00 dollars....

Just save your money and buy a smith and wesson...

[@GSquaredTactical]

We try not to be gun snobs if we can help it. That’s almost like saying if someone buys a Ford Taurus that they should save their money and buy a Bugatti. Sometimes it does not matter how much money someone saves they can barely even afford one firearm at a budget discounted price to purchase for their self defense much less pay several hundred dollars more for a firearm. Yes, it is mostly true that the more money you want to spend the better you are likely to get but for those who cannot afford to buy a higher priced gun we review this one, because it is a very effective, reliable, accurate, and easy to shoot option. Thanks for watching.

[@sparky_-mf2cs]

@G Squared Tactical if you're on a budget, we can all agree that a 44mag is not for you.. but i get your point...that was just my opinion...

[@thelivingear990]

I have this and the 357 model. The 357 is pin point accurate, the 44 mag has not been so accurate. Maybe I bought cheap ammo or maybe I just over anticipate the recoil.

[@GSquaredTactical]

[@frankcastle1183]

Got the Raging Bull and it’s more accurate than my 608

[@johneaston2891]

You don't put enough rounds down range, double action single action whatever, that's why you ain't hitting targets. It don't matter if it's double action or single action. And the ported barrel on the Taurus revolvers is what helps with recoil, not balance of the revolver.

[@GSquaredTactical]

What would we do without you?!!

[@johneaston2891]

No, in a real life situation you should never cock the hammer on a double action revolver. Fire from double action for liability purposes , more than likely you wouldn't have the time to cock the hammer, real world in Hollywood are two different things slick!
