Design and Materials

The CHARTER ARMS TARGET MASTIFF TARGET is built around a 6-inch stainless steel barrel that contributes directly to its shot-to-shot accuracy and recoil management. The extended sight radius afforded by the longer barrel gives shooters a clear aiming advantage for precision work at the range. Charter Arms outfits the frame, barrel and cylinder with a black nitride finish, which provides superior corrosion resistance and wear protection over time—an important factor if the revolver sees regular use or is stored in varying climates.

Performance and Caliber Advantages

Chambered in the potent .357 Magnum Cal, the Mastiff targets users who require a versatile round with proven stopping power and flat trajectory for medium distances. The .357 Magnum also accepts .38 Special cartridges for reduced recoil training sessions, making the Mastiff a flexible choice for both new shooters and experienced marksmen looking to tune load selection. Its large-frame construction helps tame the stronger magnum loads while maintaining durability under sustained shooting.

Capacity and Practical Use

The revolver’s 5-round cylinder balances a traditional revolver profile with enough capacity for personal defense scenarios or competitive formats that permit revolvers. At a listed price of $595.99, the Mastiff presents a value proposition for shooters seeking a rugged, target-capable revolver without stepping into the premium price tier.

Charter Arms has a long-standing reputation for producing straightforward, reliable revolvers. The Mastiff continues that lineage while offering features tailored to precision shooting and longevity. It’s available in various model configurations to suit ergonomic preferences and sight choices; check model availability on the product page. View product details and pricing.

Range Recommendations

Use medium to heavy .357 loads for hunting or defensive scenarios and lighter .38 Special practice rounds for high-volume training. The combination of a 6-inch barrel and nitride-treated components makes routine cleaning straightforward and helps maintain accuracy over time.
