The 400 in the .475 is a handful, but great if you need it. The lighter 325's for .480 spec. are just right.

I remember Mr. Taffin's book had some great .480 loads. If memory serves it was close to the same charge as a 250 gr. .45 Colt load! You'll need to look that up. I may have been looking at a load using Unique.

Anyone play with the 480 R ? - Dave H., 2020-11-21, 11:27
