20BR or 22BR

[Woodchk]

From my understanding 55 grain Berger 20 cal bullets are essentially unobtanium.

In terms of long range target shooting, I think I would be smart in these times, and choose 22 simply because you can get bullets.

Grafs sells them

I've had several 20BR's through the years. All 1:9 twist Bartlein or Kriegers HV on custom actions set-up for the Berger 55 gr. They are easy to tune and very accurate at the longer ranges. Most barrels last 900-1000 rds. Had one that went 1500 rds.

Should make a dandy XP-100 long range pistol. I'd like a XP-100 pistol in 20PPC, but XP's are becoming more difficult to find at a reasonable price as a donor action.

Best of luck on your upcoming build.

I’m having a switch barrel 17 / 20 PPC being built now .
