What experience, wisdom, opinion is there in rechambering A-Bolt 22-hornet to K-hornet?

What are you trying to gain?  More muzzle velocity?  If so, buy an Abolt in 223.  I'd not change my 22 Hornet lefty, it's very accurate and fun to shoot as is.

Gregory,
Thanks for the comment.
I agree the Hornet is enjoyable as it is.
I don't think I would be tempted to re-chamber strictly for speed...
but I am wondering why others do switch.

I appreciate your point.
