I cannot say that the 375 Ruger totally replaced my 338 Win. But, will say it did replace it for the moose hunting that I do in the more restricted visibility areas that I hunt. And if, I were a specifically targeting bear, the 375 Ruger or the 416 Ruger does replaces the 338 Win for me. Needed perhaps not, but psychologically comforting for me without a doubt a yes.

The 375 Ruger has replaced the 375 H&H for my hunting, unless I am in a nostalgic mood. And that mood is usually sedated at the range and not the field. Though I still own more rifles in 375 H&Hs than any other cartridge.
