The Raging Bull is a DA/SA, large-frame revolver manufactured by the Brazilian Taurus International firearm company beginning in 1997. The Raging Bull has a dual-locking design built on a heavy frame, allowing the revolver to easily fire extremely powerful loads. Because of the powerful nature of these handguns, the Raging Bull has a ported barrel and a cushioned rubber grip to mitigate harsh recoil. As of 2024, it is the most powerful revolver line ever offered by Taurus.

It was chambered for a number of powerful cartridges, notably the .44 Magnum and .454 Casull, however many other powerful chamberings were offered, including the .41 Magnum, .480 Ruger, .218 Bee, .22 Hornet and .30 Carbine. The Raging Bull line was discontinued in 2019, however, that same year it was replaced by the Raging Hunter line. The Raging Hunter series is identical, however it offers a built-in Picatinny rail for scope-mounting. The Raging Hunter series is chambered in .500 S&W Magnum, .454 Casull, .44 Magnum, .357 Magnum and .460 S&W Magnum, which is a new offering for Taurus.
