Taurus Launches New 608 Competition Revolver

8-Shot Wheelgun That’s Built For Speed & Precision 

Taurus has steadily been building up its revolver lines of late, most notably in its 608 series of medium-frame gems. Prior to this latest debut, the 8-shot 608, chambered in .357 Mag/.38 SPL +P was available with 6.5- and 4-inch variants which have both received high praise from the self-defense and trail-gun masses. Now there’s something competitive shooters can sink their paws into—the Taurus 608 Competition.

The Taurus 608 Competition, is Taurus’ first competition-ready revolver designed to perform straight out of the box. Built for competitive shooting enthusiasts, the Taurus 608 Competition delivers the precision and reliability needed for USPSA or ICORE revolver competitions without the need for aftermarket modifications.

Custom 608 Competition Features

With an 8-round capacity and cut for moon clips, this revolver is equipped to handle the demands of fast-paced, high-accuracy shooting. What sets the 608 Competition apart is Taurus’ custom-tuned trigger, which can be adjusted without the need for a professional gunsmith—this offers shooters a level of customization rarely seen in out-of-the-box firearms. Shooters can confidently make performance tweaks with ease while maintaining Taurus’ renowned lifetime warranty.

• 8-Shot Capacity: The Taurus 608 Competition features an 8-round cylinder, delivering enhanced firepower and giving shooters a competitive edge in both .38 Special +P and .357 Magnum.

• Cut for Moon Clips: Designed for speed and efficiency, the revolver is cut for moon clips
  to ensure fast reloads during competition.

• Custom-Tuned Trigger: Unique to Taurus, the custom-tuned trigger is easily adjustable by the user—without voiding the lifetime warranty. Shooters can fine-tune the trigger for optimal performance on the range.

• Ready for USPSA and ICORE: The 608 Competition is fully equipped for competitive revolver categories right out of the box, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned competitors and newcomers looking for a high-performance option.
