I personally have two of each in camp, although most of my guides, including my son and daughter, prefer the Ruger.
Actual field performance is negligible, although the Ruger is a little faster with the same bullet weight. But the overall length of the little Ruger's is appreciated by everyone.

I agree the H&H has "nostalgia", but in the real world that means nothing ! The 375 Ruger has the same advantage over the 375 H&H as the .300 Win Mag had over the .300 H&H. And we all know how that played out .

Anyone who claims the 30-06 is not effective has either not used one, or else is unwittingly commenting on their marksmanship.
