Taurus USA 608 Competition .357 Mag Revolver, 6″ Barrel, 8-Round

Product Description

The Taurus USA 608 Competition is a .357 Mag double-action revolver with a 6″ barrel and 8-round capacity. It has a stainless steel finish and an external hammer, so you can fire it double action or work the hammer yourself.

This model is set up for the range. The sights are Hi-Viz fiber optic and fully adjustable, which lets you dial in your load and your eye. Taurus fits a custom tuned trigger and a custom VZ grip. The overall length is 11.5″, and the gun weighs 51.3 oz, so it is a full-size revolver meant for steady two-hand shooting.

Who it suits

The 608 Competition makes sense for shooters who like a long-barrel revolver and want a bright front sight and a trigger that has already been tuned. It fits target practice, steel plates and revolver matches. If you want extra shot capacity in a wheelgun, the 8-round cylinder gives you that.

Plan on the usual range kit. You will want .357 Mag ammunition, hearing and eye protection, a range bag, targets and a cleaning kit. A shooting bench or rest helps when you are sighting in. A holster made for a 6″ revolver is worth looking at if you plan to carry it to a match.
