378GNR, and various smaller caliber Encores (I do have a 510GNR revolver that I carried in Alaska for 8 years) that Gary built for me.. I also have 375 H&H Mag,45-70, 300 Win Mag, 308's etc rifles. ALL of the above cartridges have taken a hog or deer with one shot, bam flop. The older I get the less my hands and wrists stand up to recoil and the more I revert back to rifles with less kick to my shoulder. (It ain't doing that great either). I guess my point is (if I am making a point at all,,, LOL) is shoot whatever you are comfortable with and can shoot well. As for the difference between the 500 and the 475, get one of each, can't go wrong that way......

Another look at the .475/480 vs .500s - Dave H., 2018-01-04, 06:49
