I've not had one in 41 but I've had 454 and 480 models and they were as accurate as any handgun I've ever shot. One had original sights and the other was scoped.

I have one of the early ones in .454 and it's incredibly accurate out to 75+ yards with factory sights. Are you gripping it consistently every time? That plays a huge factor on accuracy with these guns. I don't personally care for scoped handguns, kinda defeats the purpose IMO.

I don't know of any aftermarket sights for Raging Bulls, but there are probably some around.

i have got quite a few handguns but only 2 revolvers and i am in law enforcement not bragging and i go go through our firearm training easily. i just can not get this pistol lined in , i don't know if i got just a pistol that is messed up or what i bought it new,i am going to try it one more time and if i can't get lined in i am going to trade it of to a 357 magnum of some sort preferably a s&w or a colt.

Can you see if someone else shoots it better, some people just shoot some guns better than others and it would tell maybe if there was something wrong. If someone else can shoot it good it would tell you there is nothing to fix but its just not the gun for you.

i had a friend shoot it last year when i went to peabody i had a simmons red dot on it then and i thought it was sighted in but when we were shooting it we found it it was not sighted in and we could not get it sighted in . i took the red dot off of it now and have been using open sights.

No offense meant on your shooting abilities, but have you tried a pistol vise? If not, give it a try. If it IS the pistol, then you have some proof for Taurus when ya send it back to them.
