I have not yet worked up many loads for my pre-64 375 H&H AI yet, though a few loads are really good, IMHO. They are basically 375 Weatherby loads. I sold my 375 H&H because the stock on the rifle didn’t fit me well. The Winchester stock was pretty much a perfect fit for me. The AI version sends the bullet maybe 200 fps faster but shooting it feels like less kick.
I’ve been having a lot of fun with the 375 Whelen AI. When the weather gets nicer I’ll be working with the 375’s more. I’m getting to be a whimp in nasty weather. Shooting bench has a good layer of ice on it.

I have a 375 H&H Improved as well. Started out as a rechambered 300 Wby. Put it in a Legend and man, its been a ripper. Right now I use 250 TTSX's at around 3K and it's a darned good rifle.
