The Taurus 608 is a full-size, eight-shot revolver chambered in .357 Magnum with compatibility for .38 Special and .38 Special +P ammunition. Built on a large frame with a 6.5-inch barrel, this matte stainless steel revolver delivers the stopping power and ammunition flexibility serious shooters and hunters demand. Whether you're building a versatile home-defense setup, heading to the range for extended practice sessions, or need a dependable field revolver, the 608's capacity, barrel length, and dual-caliber capability give you real options that smaller revolvers can't match.
The 608 operates with a double-action/single-action trigger, letting you choose your shot sequence based on the moment—smooth trigger action promotes consistent accuracy whether you're shooting from a holster or taking deliberate aim. The fixed front sight keeps things simple and snag-free. A transfer bar safety system (Taurus Security System) protects against accidental discharge if the revolver is dropped or impacts a hard surface, which matters when you're carrying or moving through rough terrain. Weighing 51 ounces, the 608 carries substantial enough to manage recoil but stays manageable in a belt holster or shoulder rig.
Rubber grips absorb felt recoil and provide sure purchase even with sweaty or gloved hands. The matte stainless finish resists reflections on the hunt or range and shrugs off the weather that comes with field use. Six-groove rifling with a 1-in-16.5-inch twist stabilizes the bullets the 608 sends downrange.

Yes. The 608 accepts .38 Special, .38 Special +P, and .357 Magnum ammunition. This versatility lets you practice with less-expensive .38 loads or step up to full .357 power when you need it.
The transfer bar prevents the hammer from striking the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pulled. This safety system protects against accidental discharge if the revolver is dropped or jostled, making it safer to carry or move in the field.
The 608's 6.5-inch barrel, .357 Magnum chambering, and eight-shot capacity make it viable for hunting medium game and self-defense in the field. Performance depends on ammunition choice and shot placement, as with any revolver.
