Not real heavy, but I fooled with my #1 .375 for a bit, I need a better mould. It shot around 1" at 50 yards. Welcome to the forum.

My Ruger has such a long oversize throat that I've had trouble getting it to shoot any lead through it.

Don't know if these qualify as "Heavy"...but they may provide a place to start...
Bullet is from Lyman 375449 mold,gascheck, cast 50/50 WW/Pb weighing in @ 276.5 +/- 0.5gns. sized .377,WLRM primer, NRA-alox lube. My two best loads so far in the muzzle velocity range I wish to shoot:
1.) 28gn. Blue Dot Mv(ave)= 1806 fps, grp size: 0.82 in. from a rest @ 50 yds.
2.) 47 gn. WC846 Mv(ave)= 1834 fps. grp. size, also..0.82 in. from a rest @ 50 yds.

Hope this helps....
Don

Yup, my favorite is a 350gn LBT/LFN.
