Try Retumbo first. Good luck in my friend's rifle with 350 Sierra.

You aren't far off, get about 50 rounds/lb Retumbo. Don't buy 1 lb. cans.

Retumbo or RL33

Contact Vestals Custom Rifles. They build a lot of 375 Cheytacs and such and has shot them over 3000yds.

Playing with numbers in Quickload shows 50BMG to be a good match with 350gr SMK. Try the 50-BMG powder you already have and if accuracy is not satisfactory, try..
RL-50
H-870
Viht. 24N41
Viht N570
RL-33
Retumbo

A lot of guys are shooting 5010. Matt

My 375 Cheytac loves Retumbo and 350gr MatchKings.

Retumbo is the powder. Start around 134 grains or so.

Retumbo is the powder for mine. I shoot 129gr with 350gr solid or smk. Have shot as much as 132 gr. but getting near max pressure of what I want to shoot. Good luck!!! I have pulled apart some Rounds bought from cheytac website... 132gr of Retumbo with 350gr solids, but they are not worried about the cases lasting for reloading.

Thanks very much. I wondered what Cheytac loaded in their factory loads. Good Info.

H50bmg powder works well us869 also in both cheytac and improved versions.
