Taurus Tracker 627 Revolver - Seven Shot .357/.38 

Thanks for your post. I've had my Taurus Tracker 627 for about 5 years. It's identical to yours. It's a pleasure to shoot.

I've got the 627 4'" and I didn't realize when I bought it how much the top ports help with recoil. I found I was shooting low as a result of recoil anticipation when firing DA. It kicks about like a 9mm maybe a smidge more. I love this gun and its my daily open carry. Great video!

Love my 627! Very underrated revolvers.

Are we just going to pretend like this guy doesn't have the coolest range shelter in the world?

If you're a Taurus fan, you should check out their Raging Hunter series. I have the .357mag version and love it because the forcing cone is massive, the cylinder walls are thick, and a little bit deeper as if it was specifically designed for experimental cartridge loads. It's basically a beefier Raging Bull.

Taurus in general has really made some huge improvements in the last decade. I used to laugh at them, and now own 2. My G2C 9mm and my fun to carry 605 defender with 3 inch barrel get much more holster time than my Glock and my M&P, mostly because I just found more comfortable holsters and carry positions for both of them, but also because I trust them 99% as much as the S&W and 90% as much as the Glock.

I got 5 Taurus revolvers too! Two 856s (2" and 3"), 82 (4"), same Tracker as yours, and a 66 (6"). ❤️ 'em all!

I'm a Taurus fan always !! Revolvers and semi-autos are affordable for the working mans wallet !

Love my 627... And 942! Taurus makes a fine revolver, and I think those are two of their best.

I bought a 605 and really like it. I might have to pick one of these up.

Always enjoy your videos Richard. Thank you.

I've got a 66 with a 4 inch barrel. It also shoots a little low. But it feels great in my hand and the recoil is nowhere near excessive. Taurus makes some nice revolvers!

I just bought one! I see the biggest difference between Taurus and Smigh and Wesson is the trigger pull. The Smith is smoother. But triggers smooth out with use. The fully shrouded barrel is great. That should come standard on all revolvers. The porting is an excellent feature as well. .357 rounds do kick a bit.... Front hi visibility front site is sweet. It could save your life. Cylinder lock up is definitely not Ruger GP 100 grade. But comparable to a Smith and Wesson. I would suggest shooting a ratio of 150 .38 to 50 .357. Or a steady diet of .38 +p. Great gun for an avid hiker, hunter, or California or Massachusetts resident. Or defensive minded homeowner.

Great Video! You’ve got the nicest shooting shack I’ve seen ! Looks like a living room . Maybe a bar with those swinging doors !

Thanks for showing Richard. This another one I need to get it looks sweet.

@Small Caliber Arms Review I've only shot a Taurus revolver once. I rented a Raging Bull .454 about twenty years ago. I liked it.

I have a Mod44 Taurus blued with wood grips that is over 25 years old and I have lots of fun with it still

Thank you for an excellent review and especially for your CLEAN language! GOD bless.

Interestingly enough I've seen Trackers in 22 Hornet also. Another model that doesn't have the key lock is the 856 UL. I had one that I traded for a 605. I love Taurus revolvers and I plan on getting either this one or the Raging Hunter in 357 soon.

I have a Taurus model 66 and 44, both 6 1/2 barrel lengths. I swapped out the grip for hogues before the even the round fired round for both. I have model 513 aka Taurus Raging Judge Magnum (6 inch too) as well but that monster is in a league of its own.

IMO the Taurus Tracker series in both 357 and 44 are a very good value. 4 years ago, when you could buy them for $375.00 they were an outstanding deal. I bought 1 in 44mag for my wife (We have a lot of bears where we hunt) and I've been very impressed with it. My wife is happy with it and shoots it well. Its not as nice as my S&W 629-1 44 mag, but it was 1/3 the price, is very accurate, nicely finished and has a nice trigger.

Nice review! Have a ton of six-shot Smiths but for some reason that extra round (7) in my cheap Burgo .32 seems so special. Seven shot and eight shot revolvers are a huge deal for extra capacity, matched with the revolver's inherent reliability. Love my semi-autos but will only ever trust my life to a revolver.

Nice revolver Richard and a very good review. I have had good experience with Taurus autos so far and I have a number of other revolvers but no Taurus yet. I have been looking high and low for one of the new .327 magnum revolvers that they announced a SHOT show but have had no luck. I'll keep on looking I guess. Perhaps we should make you an ammo box that has 7 rows and 7 columns to satisfy that OCD! 😁

Seldom is heard a discouraging word about the 357mag n a good Ole Taurus revolver and those that own know it's a solid buy . Great review on the tracker , I dig it.

My favorite wheel gun stays close is reliable and smooth to this day a model 65 in 357. It sports discontinued wood grips being made in the nineties also bit of mild pitting and heavy holster wear.

Coolest home gun range ever!

FWIW: I purchased a _627 Tracker_ a few months ago. It is my first handgun. I have not fired it yet, but I am looking forward to doing so. Thanks for posting this video...👍

Am back I was able to get a 942 mag, found it on gun broker. It was rich priced way up to 600 bills, but I bought it any way. I love it so much I went and got a tracker like yours and the 905. I was up cleaning them this morning. Decided to learn on my own while also watching some videos. Nice experience. I did get a 605 defender back in July and that too is a joy to shoot. I sold the snubby I owned before. Keep bringing it boss.

I had a 605 that I used to carry 180 grain bear loads in. My old camping partner that passed away just over a year ago loveed that gun. I let him carry it and I just scared my 9 mm. That 605 is freaking loud! I was sleeping one night and my tent and he fired that thing off at some coyotes that got too close for comfort. That was a rude awakening! All I've ever had to do with coyotes as yell at them and they run off. I guess he just wanted to make a statement. It's been over a year since I've been back woods camping. I didn't just quit because my camping partner died. I had rotor cuff surgery last summer and I haven't been able to carry a backpack yet. It still gives you more peace of mind camping with someone as opposed to being alone. I'm not going to have no one to pull away from the riverbank because they're to drunk and just about to fall in the water. Where's the fun in that!? You look like your just about my age give or take. My friends are dropping like flies. It's hard to find anyone Stat likes camping in the Backwoods anymore. If I die camping I'll die doing what I love. Maybe I'll get me a Taurus 327. I've always wanted a tracker series 357 Magnum.

I got a 605 and a 627 6.5 barrel both 357 I took the 627 hunting didn't get chance use it but both are nice accurate pistols

Well done. Thanks.

I have a Taurus model 65 357/38 special can be shot in it I love it I carry it when I don’t have my gx4xl 9mm also a Taurus thanks for your videos I enjoy watching them

Great revolver Taurus RT627 🔨🎯👏🏻

Keep up the good work !

Great video

I always thought it would be cool if they made a tracker in 5.7, I've got the 357 and it's awesome

I just got one today I like the look of it my new carry gun 🔫

I heard that the bark is loud but the bite isnt vicious, and them rhymes you be kickin are quite bootylicious!

I love 357. It’s so hard to find nowadays.

Taurus: value, performance, warranty.

The Cylinder release on my Taurus hung up a little at first too but a little LCP took care of it, I guess it was just a little dry from the factory.

Fine firearms! I Just chose to go with the 6inch model and no porting so that I could use cci snake-shot ! The ported models clearly state not for use with snake-shot . In the factory literature! Great guns with full power handloads for hunting purposes or self defense!

I've had my Tracker 357 for over a decade. I have many "better" guns, but this is the one I will always call my best all around, and I'll never part with

Best gun I ever owned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok So Now I'm Thinking about getting one. THANKS LOL. I saw one today, when I purchased my 856. 3in, which I plan to take to the range next weekend.

Tenho uma dese modelo no Brasil ele e ótimo muito bom não tenho oque reclamar.

Thanks for doing this. I was thinking about getting one of these but not now. Looks good but not too accurate.

This was one of the first revolvers I got...actually maybe THE first I got...it's cool but I didn't dig how the grip felt even after I changed it out. Also kept having issues with the trigger biting my finger when I pulled it. It's not a bad gun but it wasn't for me. I sold it to someone and I'm presuming they still have it. Having 7 shots is definitely an advantage over other guns and the porting does help with recoil even with .357 magnum. Nice video and nice collection man.

I really like this revolver the only problem I have with it is that the trigger return Spring needs to be lightened quite a bit which would help with the trigger Pull and not interfere with the strike on the primer. Replace the trigger return Spring with Handy-pack 88011 from menards 5/32 x 1 5/16 × 0.023 WG

I have the same model, and it shot low & left as well. The sights had to be adjusted all the way up and to the right for it to hit point of aim. Odd looking but works.

I have a Tracker in 45 acp, it is really a boomer. I inherited it.

Getting more impressed with Taurus revolvers. Going to take a look at getting them when finances allow.

Eu amo esse revolver, altamente confiável , preciso. Adoraria vê-lo na cor preta oxidada e também na forma cromada brilhante. Excelente agrupamento em seus tiros meu amigo, eu também amo revolveres, facil carregamento pane praticamente zero. Parabéns por suas considerações (8:06). Thanks a lot dude!

I traded my son my Ruger GP 100 for this handgun because he needed the more robust gun for shooting the hotter underwood loads in bear country. I really like this Taurus.

Love 357 in 4" inch ❤

Loosen the screw a little bit on the cylinder lock it don’t take much then it will relieve some of the tension. When you push the button, the cylinder will come out easier than before. I did that on the 605 and the 65 and it works great. I too am a Taurus fan.

i love revolvers too!

Brasil tem um dos melhores revólveres do mundo, Tracker 627, chamamos de canhão de mão!

Good one Richard. Questions: What do you think of revolvers and Taurus particularly?😊 Taurus has come a long way since the first one I purchased. Got any experience with the Browning SA-22 semiauto or the Browning T-Bolt? Keep 'um comin'. Always fun to watch. JimE

My 605 stainless had a sticky cylinder release, I took off the side plate and cleaned out the machining grit. I think Taurus sends out the metal shavings with revolvers so they do not have sweep them off the floor..lol

It’s normal to have various .38 and .357 loads hit to different points of impact as far as elevation.sometimes dramatically so.

wow beautiful

I want to try one of these so bad but some of the early problems of cylinder binding and such gives me pause. I wonder if they have worked out these issues? Great video and thank you for it

I too really like my Taurus revolvers.I have a Taurus 9mm semi-auto which I put just over 3000 rds through in one month w/o a single hickup. But my love is revolvers. Have you seen the new Rossi revolvers ? I am really anxious to get my hands on one. Thanx for the video. God bless Jim

Good review i have 130 acres the tracker lives in my mule

If opening and closing the cylinder is too tight Then Take the screw out that holds the cylinder in place the screw has a detent in it with a small Spring that needs to be trimmed one coil off .

Nice look and display of the 627. I'm interested in getting one. My purpose will mainly be target and woods carry. I would love a SW or Ruger, but I just can't justify the $$$ for my purpose.

I like that painting in your shed..Valesquez?

This is my first time viewing your channel. Thank you for a very good video . I have 9, 40 and 45 semis by S&W and am looking for a 357 trail gun for my camping in Colorado, Wyoming, and Idaho. I was thinking about the 605. But this looks like a better option. Thank you again.

Would you recommend this model? I have owned the Taurus public defender for many years and I love that gun

I own the 692. Same as the 627 but comes with an extra .9mm cylinder. More bang for the buck.

Shooting low?! Better than I’ve ever done!

I’m looking 👀 for a companion wheel gun for my CHIAPPA RHINO 40DS .357. I really want to fire them side by side to see if the RHINO mitigates recoil as much as they say? I have seen many videos and it looks like it does?? I wonder if the ports will make that much difference??? Before I forget, the video was well done and informative! I have subscribed. I really am leaning towards this gun?!

Have you checked out the Taurus 608? 8 rounds of 357! I’m definitely thinking about getting one

One issue I had was with a PMC ammo and one of the bullets partially came out of the case and got partially stuck. Was a pain in the a$$ to clear.

great video sir i am Taurus Gun Fan if i decide to go with a New Hangun it'll be The Taurus Tracker 627 in .357 Magnum / .38 Special

The 38 special case can be charged to 357 Magnum when reloading the round if that's what you choose to do but it's could be dangerous

I get your point that 38 is cheaper but it still hits the wallet hard . I just checked Saturday for 38 special 62 bucks a box of 50 . No thanks lol . Told me Black Friday it was on sale for 45 . Can buy a lot of 9mm for that and a boat load of 22 . If I’m “plinking” as you said .

I've been lookin for the 627 but in my area they're hard to get. Really want it to go with my henry carbine.

Poderia testar o Tracker 692...seria interessante a sua opinião... 👍

Greet video.

Trying to decide 6 inch barrel or 4. Thoughts?

Has anyone had their cylinder unable to stay closed? It appears the extractor stars detent pin got jammed up and only comes out when the cylinder is open and I have to smack the extractor a few times fairly hard for the pin to come back out. If I close it back up the detent pin gets jammed inside and the cylinder falls to the side and flops around

Oh I like that but I like the hogue grips better on them

Got my titanium 627 over 15 years ago. Took it to the range and it wouldn't fire. Taurus guarantees their gun so I had to send it back for some kind of adjustment. Works fine now.

Has anyone been able to find a nice holster for this?

Were those .38's some of your personal reloads? They certainly appeared to be grouping very good. Esp compared to the 357's.

do you notice that much of a diffrence in upwards recoil when shooting the 605 and 627? Im curious on how much the ported barrell works

Are these All Hand loads😮?

I like

My buddy bought a 7 shot taurus .357 and he tells people it holds 6 with one in the pipe! Lol

I’ve shot this gun at an indoor range, didn’t like the cloud of powder it produces, stains the back of cylinder and frame horribly, and thumb release scratched up the frame. 357 propels real quick and smooth out the barrel though. Overall, would only use at outdoor range, not for conceal carry. Would recommend a respirator when firing this 627. Lunge cancer ⚠️!!!

I have one in a.41 Rem magnum

Good review! I have the stainless 605 and it's my most common carry gun. I would like to get the .44 magnum with the 6.5 inch barrel, but it's seldom available.

Where did you get that portrait? Jeffery Epstein estate sale 😂. Great review, hard to find now in 2023 and about $600-700 now.

What kind of holster do you use? I bought this gun in 6 1/2 inch barrel, Though I'm still waiting for the gun to ship to the store, Paid 500$ total.

a 7 shot 6 shooter?!?! no way😲

👍👍

Adjust the sights

Big bears have been killed with 22lr, 38spl, 9MM, 357MA, 45ACP, 44MAG, etc.
