Like Garys 510 GNR, it will do 90% of its big brother and is a bit easier for a light plinker load. I have a 325gr LBT load at 1350 fps that is pleasant to shoot and will kill anything that I would normally hunt. A 400gr LBT in the 11-1200fps range should handle anything else that you might want to go talk to. I have yet to try the Speer 275 GD bullets yet, but with Power Pro 300 MP there is a load where they get 1900 fps out of a 9.5" SRH!

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