The easiest would be .375 H&H AI or .375 Weatherby. You can make brass for either just by fireforming .375 H&H brass.
And if you are someplace and can't find you can use the H&H ammo to complete your hunt.

Obvious choice is the 375 Weatherby which is just a blown out H&H.
I will sell you the reamer too.

Have a Sako marked FN. It's stamped 375 MAG. Didn't know it was Weatherby when I bought it.

Shoots clover leafs with H&H ammo.

I had one of those as well, bought at auction thinking it was the standard H&H


Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship

More feeding work than I thought it would be, but I made a 375 RUM from a Winchester 70 "Classic"

Ok, RUM is a completely different animal, but I have built some 338 RUMS on Model 70s; not hard. Have to learn how to bend up the mag boxes.

I have what left of a push feed M70 receiver that was a H&H that someone opened out to 378 WBY
Then the customer reloaded some ammo up and BLEW the rifle up

After all Norma 205 reloading data is the same as Hodgon 205 powder

The Sako-FN's in .300 H&H and .375 H&H were built in the 1950's and very early 1960's when conversion to the Weatherby versions was all the rage. You will run across lots of them with re-reamed chambers. Since the cases are belted, even the shade tree gunsmiths who did the job usually wound up with a chamber that was still usable.
