Well I I can come close to what the OP is looking for, maybe?
Seriously I have 19 Ruger #1's in various configurations but only one Browning High Wall and it's a 30-06.
I'll compare the B78 30-06 with a Ruger #1B, also in 30-06 and try to keep it fair. First off, weight; the Ruger is a bit heavy but the Browning is definitely heavier. The barrel on the Browning is definitely fatter. Both barrels are round. Neither trigger is all that great but one can get used to it. I find the Ruger a little easier to do a rapid reload when on a hunt. The Browning still not bad but as I said, the Ruger seems easier.
On accuracy I find the Browning to be the more accurate of the three. Three? Yes three as I have two Ruger #1B models in 30-06 and the Browning outshoots both Rugers. To be honest, the Rugers are the "red pad" models most of which came with Wilson barrels. Some of those barrels were not so hot, to be kind and some were outright fecal material. Still more than half my #1's are MOA or better. I understand the "black pad" Rugers have barrels by Ruger now and are usually pretty good shooters. I haven't checked a late model Ruger of any type but all my #1's and M77s do not have the wood sealed on the inside. Learned that one the hard way after getting caught in a heavy rain shower in eastern Oregon on an elk hunt. I have not seen that as a problem in the Browning.
I think the Ruger, especially one with nice wood is slightly more classy than the Browning. I do wish more of those early Rugers had better barrels but they are what they are. I've heard that Ruger's accuracy standard is 2" at 50 yards to 2" at 100 yards depending on who answers the question. Dunno what Browning's standards are but based on the one I have probably higher than Rugers.
I guess I only have a couple of gripes on the Browning. The trigger is a given, and that super glossy finish that ends up cracking along the grain pattern is something I would rather do without. My biggest gripe? Try lowering the hammer to half cock after chambering a round with a low mounted scope in place. T'ain't easy.
I understand there is supposed to be some kind of side extension to alleviate the problem but I've never bothered. I only use the Browning at the range as a cast bullet gun so the rifle is either loaded to shoot or open one the bench. I do consider it a safety issue. The 1885 may handle that differently.
