Can someone recommend a good gunsmith for this work and also, what am I looking at for an approximate cost. There are several Cooper rifles available that are chambered for the Ackley hornet but very few for the Hornady hornet. If it is reasonable, I might but an Ackley to re-chamber.
 
The hornaday is smaller, so you'll have to set the barrel back, rethread and rechamber.
 
I'm all set here, I found the rifle I wanted (Cooper model 38) with a 17 hornady chambering.
