I don't see the point in .480 Ruger, it's not much bigger than .454 and it's expensive to shoot and practice with. You could say the same about .454 Casull not being much bigger than .44 Magnum and you're right about that, but .454 Casull has a lot more energy than .44 Magnum and penetrating ability.
This question is pertaining to stopping a Grizzly, not hunting and killing a Grizzly. .454 will do both if you put the bullet where it needs to go and it will be more likely of stopping that bear better than .44 Magnum.
And I say all that if you're using a revolver. A .454 isn't going to weigh much more or be much larger than a .44 Magnum will be, so it's not a bad choice. If I had the choice, I'd probably just carry a Glock 20 because it's much lighter and holds about 10 more rounds.
