Just read your post to my husband. He states the .480 Ruger is even worse that the .454 Casull (similar to the contrast between a .38 special vs. a .357 magnum).

I've never shot the .480 Ruger. Judging from what you wrote, I'd better put on gloves if I shoot one!

Not really. The .480 is a lowered version of the .475 Linebaugh round. The .475 is more powerful than the 454 but the .480 was designed for a lower recoil round than the .454 with the same energy shooting bigger bullets.
