I have a very nice condition 1886 45-90 antique, great bore. Having difficulty getting a Nitro for black load to pattern with lead bullets 300 grains to 330 grains. Anyone have a good load for me to try??

Try the 45-70 loads using AA XMP-5744 . I’ll push cast just like jacketed if the cast has a gas check . You can also try 45-70 data using H322 . I’ve loaded a pile of 444 and 45-70 pushing them pretty well with H322 .
