204 ruger length

How long does a 204 Ruger barrel need to be to burn all the powder and keep its accuracy. I'm about to have a Douglas barrel put on and shorter is better for my small boys, but I don't want to give up performance.I saw a thread saying 21.75 inches was best,but wouldn't the best length be caliber and case specific?
 
I'm guessing the burn rate of your powder would be a determining factor in how long the barrel would have to be to burn all the powder.
 
Check out 204ruger.com......yes they have their own special website.....they list some surprising results from various barrel length test.
