I have a ruger#1 in 375 it is my Elinor, the one I have always wanted. Love the cal and the gun.
Just started loading for it now got some 300gr Nosler accubonds found the accuracy to be great, but wondering what some of you seasoned H&H shooters are loading in yours.
 
I use more W760/ H414/ 47SL than anything. 78 grains is usually the listed maximum for every bullet from 270 to 300 grains. Staying with one powder helps a bit when you are trying to get softs and solids shooting together, and when you are carrying both in the rifle at the same time. Being able to drop charges effortlessly is a bonus when you need another pail of practice loads.

RL15 is usually the speed king with 270s, and is worth a mention. IMR4350 is a classic with 300s. Just ask Elmer Keith.
 
RL-15 has been by far the best powder for me.
As a bonus it delivers best accuracy near wide open.

As our friend Dog :)D) mentioned 4350 is good stuff too.
300gr bullets 71 grains of IMR-4350 is good for about 2300fps (good for light recoil and practice) and is deadly accurate in every gun I ever tried it in.

Good luck!
 
Another on the RL15. I use 75 gr to push 270gr TSX. I have tried IMR 4350 but it didn't group as well as the loads made up with RL15.
 
I have used W760 or IMR4350 and 300gr Nosler Partitions with good success. I'll have to do some digging to find the exact loads. I have about 75 Virgin unprimed Winchester cases if you are interested.
