The 480 Alaskan wasn't made to be a hunting revolver. In fact it would probably be illegal for hunting in many states, that have barrel minimum length laws. It is designed to be an easily carried revolver, that you would be likely to have on you, while camping, or fishing, etc. Those large diameter, heavy bullets, even at reduced velocity from the short barrel, would be more likely to stop something that might have you on it's dining list. It would probably be easier to get back on target, for follow-up shots, than the violent recoiling 454 Casull, also.

JMHO,
