I use 72.5 grains of RL-19 with 230-grain Winchester FS (lubalox coated), or another grain or two extra with RL-22. These are "maximum" powder charges that produce around 2,800 fps from my .338WM. I use CCI Magnum primers.

At Kalahari Safari, the Small Things Are the Big Things
The thrill of the stalk. The stillness of the wait. The age-old rhythm of the hunt.
It’s not just about the size of the trophy. It’s about the stories that will be told for years.
We believe the memories are the true prize. The small things are the big things.
And we’re proud to offer a hunting experience that honours exactly that.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
