One thing about the “improved” cartridges: If you’re happy with top velocity with the “unimproved” cartridge, you can reach that velocity at a lower pressure with your AI or Weatherby.
I’ve always liked the H&H version and I had one and my 375 AI at the same time. I decided to sell one. Both were fine rifles in my opinion, but I really liked the pre-64 trigger and I could shoot it more accurately and the felt recoil seemed less. I suspect that the Winchester’s stock fit better. So far I’ve only shoot full power loads in my AI a few times.
I had a friend that used his 375 H&H on elk and he thought it was the perfect cartridge for such. I guess people will have individual preferences. I certainly have mine.
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

Might have a 700 action for Judman. It is currently a 270 Weatherby that has been a real disappointment for a custom rifle. The barrel just ain't right and the gunsmith had health problems and died before it was resolved.
I also ended up with 2 1/2 boxes of 375 Weatherby factory loads through an auction. Bought for a friend who recently went through some health issues and won't ever be shooting something like a 375 again.

Paging Jud.... hello Jud, we need an update on the 375....
I finally got my Mauser 375 barrel action back from the gunsmith after a 2 yr wait... got it stocked in a nice piece of English walnut and will be posting build pic's soon.

My pre-64 375 H&H AI seems to be awesome. But I’m getting long in the tooth and my body says no way when I considerAfrica.

Mine started life as a 300 H&H someone rechambered to 300 Wby. Couldn’t begin to beg it to shoot. Had JES rebore and rechamber to 375 Improved with a 1-10 twist. I also had a Legend kicking around so that’s what it got. Pretty nice handling 375 now.

I have a Win. Stainless Classic with a muzzle Brake and a Hogue stock, New Haven that shoots great but haven't decided on a load yet due to lack of components and cash. Only shoot it in the Very Early cold months. $800.00 out the door.
Brass is .300 H&H up to the current .340 WBY---all reformed/fireformed!
