I mostly shoot 240 gr. Hornady XTP Mags ahead of IMR 4227, at 1650 fps. Mild load, but very effective- last game shot were a red deer and a meat hog, both pass-thru one shot kills.
I recently loaded up 50 rounds with my remaining dwindling supply of original FA 260 gr. JFP bullets- these things penetrate like crazy, and will be used on a hog hunt next month.
I load my .480's with IMR 4227 powder and Cast Performance 410 gr. LWNFP bullets, at 1140 fps velocity out of my SRH. Very easy-shooting load with potential to use on very large critters.
