Question 22khornet or 223

firstly its not about power or fps,i love the hornet and most probably will get one,rechamber it to k hornet i have dies powder over a thousand cases .i can load reduced loads down to under 1000 fps and any where up to 3000fps using i.5 gn with 22lr projectiles and dacron filler to 12.5 gns for max loads (we don't have lil gun down here) how cheap is that.the k hornet may improve on that a little if it shoots as flat as 17 hmr and hits harder at any range thats all i need.200 yards is all i need i can walk the other 30 - 50 yards that a 222 or 223 might have ,if hit right a rabbit or fox will not know the diferance.if i need more range or power my 6.5 sweed can take over. i realy am interested in this new savage single shot with flash new trigger set up.i know alot of people love there 223's or 222's(i have a 222 rimmed in a h&r topper)but to me they boom to much and chew more powder,ok for somebody who doesn't reload they may be cheaper to feed but i reload. well i hpoe to here some other peoples opinions see ya's
