For hunting, it is likely not accurate enough. For humans, it is going to over-penetrate. I guess there's always the bear defense fantasy...
Why would it not be accurate enough? Have you shot a 460 Rowland? I have a dual ported model as you can see, so the barrel climb is almost nil and the kick is straight back. Further my typical carry round would be the 230 Grain Wilson Combat Hornady XTP hitting with around 736 ft lbs running at about 1200 fps.

Certainly there is alot more potent rounds available for this gun but this somewhat reduced round seem to me to off the best of all worlds, solid but not crazy penetration in a large caliber round.

I shoot groups with it only slightly larger than what my P220 Carry does at the same distance and in the same time.
