Payload/Range graphs based on certified OEM data shared by a more learned colleague than I:

The 777ER carries it's max payload to 5800nm, after which it tapers off.

The A359 carries it's (lesser) max payload to 6300nm, after which it too tapers off.

On a 7700nm leg, the A359 arrives with a higher payload than the 777ER.

No, I wasn't smart enough to do the study myself
