Bigger diameter, makes a heavier hitter. The 480 with a 400 grain is no more shootable than a 500 JRH shooting the same weight bullet at the same speed. In fact I know a first time handgunhunter that bought the 500 JRH and loads Fromm 1000 to qwooo fps and just loves the thing.

The 475 or 480 is are much heavier hitters than a 44, but make no mistake a 500 hits even harder. The 500 JRH is a very versatile round for sure and certain.
