Gentlemen, looking for opinions on this revolver. It looks very good for the price: $560. It will do double duty, used for hunting and home defense. I really like the fact that it holds seven rounds. Opinions?

I was looking at the .22 WMR Tracker, and after a bunch of research I determined that the Taurus revolvers (all calibers) weren't there quality-wise. Seemed they had lots of problems, and that customer service was frequently lacking. Personally, I would go with the S&W 686 for ~$100-150 more, or perhaps look into the Ruger revolvers.

I have a Titanium Tracker in .45 Colt, and it's been great. That said, I've heard the titanium guns have better QC than most of their products.

The 7 rds is nice, but ive had nothing but bad luck with taurus. However, the ruger blackhawk has been a fine pistol, wish i never go rid of it.

Taurus makes great revolvers, especially the tracker series. I've got a model 85 (snub 38) and my buddy has a tracker in 22, and they're both great guns.

I've had a few Taurus pistols. Never had a problem with them but I never liked the triggers. I like my Rugers. Have a couple in .327 both 7 rounds. And a .357 GP100.

I owned one briefly. I had problems with the cylinder staying locked in place. I would get a smith or ruger. Much better built for the price.

For about the same price - GP100

I have trackers in both 22lr/22mag and in 17 hmr. They all have performed flawless through 1000 rounds each. Great guns

I had a tracker in the past and it was a great firearm.

Have no experience with Taurus revolvers, however, like okstatefan says, GP100 for about the same price. IMO, Ruger is the king of revolvers. You won't find a better one.

I've had the Tracker in 357, WMR and HMR. Never had a single problem with any of them. The HMR did require a regular cleaning.
